OAKLAND, Calif. -- Right-hander Osvaldo Bido agreed to a one-year contract with the Oakland Athletics after he was let go by the Pittsburgh Pirates.



Bido gets a $750,000 salary while in the major leagues -- $10,000 above the minimum -- and a $200,000 salary while in the minors under the deal announced Monday.




The 28-year-old right-hander was 2-5 with a 5.86 ERA in nine starts and seven relief appearances this year for the Pirates, striking out 48 and walking 21 in 50 innings. He made his big league debut on June 14.



Bido went 3-4 with a 4.16 ERA in 10 starts and nine relief appearances for Triple-A Indianapolis.




He became a free agent Friday when the Pirates declined to offer a 2024 contract.
