Top Jacob Bird News

  • Yankees' Jake Bird: Summoned from minors

    The Yankees recalled Bird from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.

    He'll grab the roster spot vacated by David Bednar, who was placed on the paternity leave list. Bird boasts a 27:7 K:BB over 24 innings with the Yankees this season, though that's come with a bloated 4.88 ERA. He could be sent back down later this week when Bednar returns.

  • Yankees' Jake Bird: Sent down after Saturday's game

    The Yankees optioned Bird to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    Bird pitched scoreless innings in both Friday's and Saturday's contests, lowering his ERA to 4.88 through 24 innings on the season. He'll now end up as the roster casualty necessary to create space in preparation for Elmer Rodriguez's promotion Sunday. Bird is likely to return to the Bronx at some point this season when the Yankees need a fresh arm in the bullpen.

  • Yankees' Jake Bird: Secures sixth hold Tuesday

    Bird notched a hold against the Blue Jays on Tuesday, striking out one batter and hitting one over a scoreless and hitless two-thirds of an inning.

    Bird entered in the seventh inning with New York ahead 5-3. He retired the first two batters he faced before hitting Vladimir Guerrero with a pitch. Bird was pulled after the HBP, and Guerrero was ultimately stranded. Bird has given up just two earned runs while recording an 8:3 K:BB over his past 11 appearances spanning 8.1 innings. He's been in the high-leverage mix with five holds over that span.

  • Yankees' Jake Bird: Summoned to big leagues

    The Yankees recalled Bird from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.

    He's grabbing the roster spot vacated by Ryan Weathers, who was placed on the paternity list. Bird has given up six runs over seven innings at the big-league level this season, though that's come with a 9:1 K:BB. He will likely be sent back down later this week when Weathers returns.

  • Yankees' Jake Bird: Bumped to Triple-A

    Bird was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre following Monday's game against the Angels.

    Bird was touched up for three runs on four hits over one inning Monday night, which marks the second time in his last four appearances that he's surrendered three runs. The Yankees have yet to announce a corresponding move but will likely bring up a fresh arm ahead of Tuesday's clash.

  • Yankees' Jake Bird: Agrees to deal with Yankees

    Bird signed a one-year contract with the Yankees to avoid arbitration Thursday.

    The official terms of the deal haven't been announced, but this was Bird's first year of arbitration eligibility. The Yankees acquired him from the Rockies at the summer deadline, but he was dispatched to Triple-A after giving up six earned runs in his first three outings for New York, and he spent the rest of the season in the minors.

  • Yankees' Jake Bird: Dispatched to Triple-A

    The Yankees optioned Bird to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

    Bird has yielded seven runs (six earned) over two innings in three appearances since being acquired by the Yankees at the trade deadline. He'll likely get another opportunity later this season, but Bird's struggles date back to mid-June, so he'll try to iron out his issues in the minors.

  • Yankees' Jake Bird: Traded to Yankees

    The Yankees acquired Bird from the Rockies on Thursday in exchange for Roc Riggio and Ben Shields, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.

    Bird has had a rough July, allowing 15 runs (14 earned) with a 5:4 K:BB over 6.1 innings. However, he entered the month with a 2.68 ERA and 57:19 K:BB over 47 frames, and the Yankees are betting he'll be closer to the latter version. Bird also comes with team control through the 2028 campaign.

  • Rockies' Jake Bird: Shining in relief

    Bird struck out five batters over two perfect innings of relief in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Giants.

    Though he has yet to record a save this season, Bird has quietly emerged as an indispensable piece in the Colorado bullpen. He hasn't allowed an earned run in any of his last 10 appearances and has been scored upon just three times in 22 outings dating back to April 15. Over that span, Bird owns a 1.16 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 41:8 K:BB while collecting one win and seven holds in 31 innings. With both Zach Agnos and Seth Halvorsen having faltered in their recent late-inning opportunities, it wouldn't be surprising if Bird was called upon for a save chance in the near future, though the 12-55 Rockies haven't had many leads to protect all season.

  • Rockies' Jake Bird: Back with big club

    The Rockies recalled Bird from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.

    The move corresponds with Colorado placing right-hander Tyler Kinley on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation. Bird has appeared in 32 major-league games out of the Rockies' bullpen this season and has registered a 4.95 ERA and 1.79 WHIP across 36.1 innings.

  • Rockies' Jake Bird: Heading back to minors

    The Rockies optioned Bird to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.

    The transaction frees a roster spot for the return of Antonio Senzatela (elbow), who is back from the 60-day injured list to make his season debut Monday against the Diamondbacks. Bird holds a 4.95 ERA and ugly 28:25 K:BB over 36.1 frames with the big club in 2024.
