Marlins' Jonah Bride: Launches three-run homer
Rotowire
Bride went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional RBI in a loss to the Phillies on Wednesday.
Bride helped Miami get off to a promising start with a three-run homer in the first inning and added a sacrifice fly in the fourth, but the team's pitching couldn't contain Philadelphia's offense. Bride continues to be a bright spot for the Marlins, as he's notched at least one hit in 15 of 19 games since the All-Star break and is batting .308 (20-for-69) with five home runs and 17 RBI during that span. That has put him on the fantasy map, especially because he's moved into an everyday role since Josh Bell was traded to Arizona.

Marlins' Jonah Bride: Pops second homer
Rotowire
Bride went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Atlanta.
Slotting in as the depleted Marlins' cleanup hitter for the third straight game, Bride went yard for the second time during that stretch and the second time this season as he took Spencer Schwellenbach deep in the first inning. Bride has gone 7-for-23 (.304) in seven games since being called back up from Triple-A in late July, but his 2:10 BB:K -- not to mention his career .204/.299/.264 slash line over 347 plate appearances in the majors -- makes it tough to trust that his current hot streak will last much longer.

Marlins' Jonah Bride: Home run, double in win
Rotowire
Bride went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Rays.
Bride got Miami on the board in the second inning with a solo shot off Taj Bradley, his first homer in 17 games this season. The 28-year-old Bride has started four straight games for the Marlins, alternating between first and third base, and he should be in line for a regular role following Josh Bell's trade to the Diamondbacks. Overall, Bride's slashing .268/.326/.390 across 46 plate appearances this year with seven RBI and three runs scored after batting just .170 with a .491 OPS in 40 games with Oakland last season.
Bride will start at first base and bat cleanup in Wednesday's game against the Rays.
Bride will pick up his fourth straight start, but he'll move across the diamond Wednesday after he had played third base in each of the prior three contests. With the Marlins moving Josh Bell to Arizona on Tuesday and corner infielder Jake Burger perhaps being a candidate to see more time at designated hitter moving forward, Bride could have a path to regular playing time if his bat warrants it. He's gotten on base at a .345 clip since being recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on July 4 but hasn't produced an extra-base hit or a stolen base over nine games.

Marlins' Jonah Bride: Returns to Triple-A
Rotowire
Bride was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
After being called up Saturday, Bride went 1-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 12-3 win over the Athletics. With Jake Burger (oblique) returning from the 10-day injured list Monday, Bride was the odd man out on the major-league roster and he'll head back to Jacksonville. The 28-year-old has produced a .349 batting average with seven homers, 16 RBI, 14 runs scored and a stolen base over 86 at-bats in 25 games at Triple-A this season.

Bride played in five games for the Marlins at the beginning of the season, going 1-for-7 with a walk over that span. He was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville on April 4, and he has been tearing it up in the minors with a .349 batting average and 1.180 OPS over 110 plate appearances.

Marlins' Jonah Bride: Heads to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Marlins optioned Bride to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.
Bride logged 106 plate appearances in the majors with Oakland in 2023, but he'll likely have a tougher path to meaningful action in the big leagues with the Marlins, who acquired him in February. The 28-year-old should play on an everyday basis for Jacksonville to begin the 2024 campaign and will likely need one of the Marlins' corner infielders to fall victim to an injury before he receives an opportunity with the big club.

Athletics' Jonah Bride: DFA'd by Oakland
Rotowire
Bride was designated for assignment by the Athletics on Friday.
Bride appeared in 98 games for the A's over the past two seasons, but his .192/.296/.232 slash line wasn't enough for him to retain a spot on the 40-man roster ahead of spring training. The move clears space for Ross Stripling, who was acquired Friday from San Francisco.

Athletics' Jonah Bride: Sitting again in favor of Diaz
Rotowire
Bride remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.
Though he seemed to have supplanted Jordan Diaz as the Athletics' primary third baseman last week, Bride now finds himself on the bench for the fourth consecutive game. While starting each of the five games before that, Bride went 3-for-15 with a double and a pair of walks, so he didn't exactly stake a strong claim to a regular spot in the Oakland lineup.

Athletics' Jonah Bride: Back to bench Sunday
Rotowire
Bride is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.
Bride is on the bench Sunday after starting in each of the previous five games while going 3-for-15 with a double, two walks, an RBI and three runs. The last three of his starts came at third base, where he could be emerging as the Athletics' preferred option. Jordan Diaz gets the starting nod at the hot corner Sunday, but he enters the contest in a 2-for-29 funk at the plate over his last 10 games.

Athletics' Jonah Bride: Recalled from Triple-A
Rotowire
Oakland recalled Bride from Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday.
Bride will get another shot in the bigs as the Athletics play out the string on a predictably ugly 2023 season. The 27-year-old has slashed just .189/.313/.208 with zero homers and zero steals in 22 games (65 plate appearances) this summer at the MLB level.

Athletics' Jonah Bride: Raking in return to Vegas
Rotowire
Bride owns a .381 average, 1.128 OPS and modest 15.1 percent strikeout rate over the 53 plate appearances covering his last 11 games with Triple-A Las Vegas.
The 27-year-old is back to thriving in the Pacific Coast League, something he's consistently been able to do through his multiple stints with the Aviators over the last season-plus. Bride went 0-for-8 in his first two games back with Las Vegas after being demoted from the Athletics, but he's since churned out six multi-hit efforts, five extra-base hits, eight RBI, 11 walks and 15 runs over the ensuing 11-game span. Bride could potentially earn another call to the big leagues later this summer or upon roster expansion during the final month-plus of the regular season.
