Despite the Major League lockout, other leagues across the globe are in full swing and continue to make roster moves regularly. Jesse Biddle accounts for one of these moves, as he signed with the Orix Buffaloes, who are part of the Nippon Professional Baseball League in Japan.
Biddle spent the majority of his 2021 season with Triple-A Gwinnett. He appeared in 32 games and posted a 2.67 ERA. He also had a short stint with the Braves and was on the active roster for a month. Appearing in 8 games during Atlanta’s 2021 campaign, he tossed 10.2 innings and put up an ERA of 8.
