Prospect Watch: Osvaldo Bido Fans Ten

Published:

Bido’s had some stark ups and downs this year, but he’s on a good run lately.  In his last six games, he’s allowed 19 hits and 12 walks in 31 innings, with 32 strikeouts and an ERA of 1.74.  If he could just get himself onto waivers somehow, he’d have a chance to see Pittsburgh next year.

Endy Rodriguez (DH) and Matt Gorski (RF) are in the lineup for Indy.

Game Recap:

Osvaldo Bido struck out ten over five and two-thirds innings as Indianapolis (72-70) beat St. Paul, 7-3.  Bido allowed just two hits and an unearned run.  He did walk four, and he needed 92 pitches.  Endy Rodriguez and Matt Gorski made their AAA debuts.  Rodriguez just continued doing what he does, picking up two hits, including a double, and also a sac fly.  Gorski had a single in two at-bats and also a steal.  Unfortunately, he left with a leg injury after attempting a sliding catch in right.  The play ended up as a two-run, inside-the-park home run.  Gorski was able to limp off the field, but it didn’t look terribly good.  The big day on offense belonged to Jose Godoy, who came up a triple short of a cycle.  The home run was his sixth in AAA.  Brendt Citta drove in three.  Indy did a lot of running; apart from Gorski, Hoy Park stole two bases and Ji-Hwan Bae swiped his 30th.  John O’Reilly got charged with the two runs on the Gorski play.  Junior Fernandez and Nick Mears each worked a scoreless inning.

Having followed the Pirates fanatically since 1965, Wilbur Miller is one of the fast-dwindling number of fans who’ve actually seen good Pirate teams. He’s even seen Hall-of-Fame Pirates who didn’t get traded mid-career, if you can imagine such a thing. His first in-person game was a 5-4, 11-inning win at Forbes Field over Milwaukee (no, not that one). He’s been writing about the Pirates at various locations online for over 20 years. It has its frustrations, but it’s certainly more cathartic than writing legal stuff. Wilbur is retired and now lives in Bradenton with his wife and three temperamental cats.
