Overview

  • The Yankees claimed right-hander Osvaldo Bido off waivers from the Angels and designated infielder Braden Shewmake for assignment to open a 40-man spot.
  • Under DFA rules, the Yankees have seven days to trade Shewmake or place him on outright or unconditional release waivers.
  • Bido has bounced through the Braves, Rays, Marlins and Angels since December and, with no minor-league options remaining, now lands with his sixth team in roughly two months.
  • Bido posted a 3.41 ERA over 63.1 innings for Oakland in 2024 but struggled in 2025 with a 5.87 ERA and 19 home runs allowed in 79.2 innings across a swing role.
  • The Angels had designated Bido last week to clear space for left-hander Jayvien Sandridge, acquired from the Yankees, as clubs finalize depth ahead of spring training.
