Pittsburgh Pirates fans were notified Sunday afternoon that reinforcements were on the way amid several long-term injuries to pitchers. Most, if not all, were hopeful that a former first-round pick would be the likely choice.
Little did they know, the Pirates had other plans.
According to reports, Osvaldo Bido will join the team on Tuesday and will make his Major League debut either Wednesday or Thursday against the Chicago Cubs.
Bido, 27, is 3-4 with a 4.55 ERA in 12 games this season with Triple-A Indianapolis, spending time as both a starter and reliever.
