Osvaldo Bido to Start on Tuesday

Athletics pitcher Osvaldo Bido is expected to start Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers.

Boston Red Sox pitcher Richard Fitts (biceps) was forced to make an early exit from Monday's start against the Baltimore Orioles. Fitts came out to pitch in the sixth inning, but exited after only one pitch. According to Tim Healey, Fitts is dealing with biceps tightness.

Boston Red Sox starting pitchers Richard Fitts and Kyle Harrison are both candidates to take the mound for Monday's game against the Baltimore Orioles.
