    Bickford bolsters Chicago’s relief depth heading into the 2025 campaign after making eight unremarkable relief appearances last season for the Mets, finishing with a bloated 8.64 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 6/1 K/BB ratio across 8 1/3 innings of work. The 29-year-old journeyman right-hander holds a serviceable 4.62 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 210/73 K/BB ratio across 189 innings (187 appearances) in the big leagues dating back to 2020.

    Bickford loses his spot on New York’s 40-man roster with both Clark Schmidt and Ian Hamilton returning from the injured list ahead of Saturday’s game at Wrigley Field. The 29-year-old righty made eight relief appearances for the Yankees after being brought up back in late August.

  • NYY Relief Pitcher #53
    Yankees re-signed RHP Phil Bickford to a minor league contract.
    Bickford was designated for assignment last weekend and passed through waivers unclaimed, but he elected free agency rather than accepting his outright assignment to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    The 28-year-old right-hander was designated for assignment over the weekend and passed through waivers unclaimed, but rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, he’ll peddle his wares on the open market instead. Bickford holds a 2.93 ERA over 22 appearances at Triple-A this season, so it shouldn’t take him long to find a new gig.

Bickford has a 2.93 ERA in 22 Triple-A appearances this year. He would need to be added back to the 40-man roster before the Yankees could call on him again as bullpen depth.
