Bido (3-3) earned the win against the Blue Jays on Saturday, allowing two hits and one walk while striking out five across six scoreless innings.

Bido followed up his first quality start of the season Sunday with the best start of his career, silencing the Blue Jays in a 1-0 victory. He generated 11 swinging strikes on 89 pitches and did not allow a single hard-hit ball. On the season, the 28-year-old owns a 3.92 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 39:19 K:BB across 39 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Giants next weekend.

The Yankees optioned Marinaccio to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.

Marinaccio was brought up to be the Yankees' 27th man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Rangers and, as expected, will return to Triple-A following the twin bill. Marinaccio threw 2.1 scoreless innings of relief during an 8-0 win in Game 1, marking his first MLB appearance since June 20. The 28-year-old has registered a 1.55 ERA across 29 innings with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Topa (knee) was returned from his minor-league rehab assignment Saturday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

Topa has shown decreased velocity recently, and it's been revealed that he's been battling arm fatigue. The right-hander has been on assignment since July 23 as part of his recovery from a tear in the patellar tendon of his left knee. He's yet to make his 2024 debut. While it's unclear how far the arm fatigue will set him back, Topa shouldn't be expected back any time soon.

General manager Mike Elias confirmed Saturday that Bautista (elbow) won't pitch in 2024, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Bautista returning in 2024 seemed like a longshot after he underwent Tommy John surgery last October, but there was a sliver of hope he'd be available come playoff time. While we won't see Bautista in an Orioles uniform until 2025, he's been progressing well and is expected to begin throwing off a mound next week.

Testing on Webb's right elbow showed no structural damage Saturday, and his stay on the injured list is expected to be short, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Webb was placed on the injured list Wednesday with inflammation in his throwing elbow, and further testing confirmed that he isn't dealing with anything severe. General manager Mike Elias said Saturday that Webb's elbow was "barking," but it seems that Webb could return shortly after the minimum 15 days. The Orioles called up Bryan Baker from Triple-A Norfolk to fill Webb's spot on the active roster.

The Blue Jays claimed Frias off waivers from the Diamondbacks on Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Buffalo.

Two days after being DFA'd by the D-backs, Frias will reclaim a spot on a 40-man roster -- though he will remain in Triple-A upon joining his new organization. The 26-year-old owns a 4.88 ERA and 1.46 WHIP through 24 innings in the minors this year, and he's allowed seven earned runs in just 6.1 big-league frames.

The Angels placed Marte on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to a viral infection.

Marte has been surprisingly effective out of the bullpen for the Angels this season, posting a 2.33 ERA and 1.24 WHIP through 19.1 innings. However, he'll now be held out until at least Aug. 23 as he fights off an infection. Right-hander Jack Kochanowicz was recalled from Double-A Rocket City in a corresponding move.

The Royals recalled Hernandez from Triple-A Omaha on Saturday.

With Hunter Harvey on the injured list due to a back injury, Hernandez will return to Kansas City to fill the open spot in the Royals' bullpen. The 27-year-old righty owns a 3.86 ERA and 1.54 WHIP through 11.2 innings in the majors this year, though he has surrendered seven runs in just 7.2 frames since being optioned to Omaha in early July.

The Royals placed Harvey on the 15-day injured list Saturday with mid-back tightness.

Manager Matt Quatraro revealed after Friday's game that back tightness is the reason Harvey hasn't made an appearance since Sunday, and the 29-year-old righty will now officially be sidelined until at least Aug. 23. Lucas Erceg and James McArthur figure to be the leading candidates for saves while Harvey is out, and the Royals will bring up Carlos Hernandez from Triple-A Omaha to replenish their bullpen depth.

Faedo will serve as the Tigers' opener during Saturday's game against the Giants, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Saturday will mark Faedo's fourth start of the season and his second of August. He was able to last 1.2 frames during his most recent opening assignment and will likely pitch a similar amount of innings against the Giants before handing the ball to Brant Hurter, who is expected to pitch in bulk relief.
