The Yankees continue to tinker with their 40-man roster, claiming right-handed pitcher Osvaldo Bido off waivers from the Los Angeles Angels.
To make room on the roster, infielder Braden Shewmake was designated for assignment.

Bido, a 30-year-old right-hander who stands at 6-foot-3, has pitched in the majors for both the Pirates and Athletics.
In 26 appearances (10 starts) with the A’s last season, Bido pitched to a 5.87 ERA with 68 strikeouts and 35 walks in 79.2 innings.
It’s been a busy offseason for Bido, as he’s been claimed by the Braves, Rays, Marlins, Angels, and now the Yankees.
Shewmake, a 27-year-old middle infielder, played in 85 games last season for Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes-Barre, posting a .680 OPS.
