All of the runs came in the first, which featured two doubles and two singles. Bibee ended up with a quality start anyway, striking out six, and got the victory to improve to 7-15 with a 4.36 ERA. He’ll next work in the ALDS against the winner of the AL West or the White Sox.

Bibee labored through a long first inning, giving up two runs on four hits. He bounced back with a scoreless second. Two more hits brought a third run home for the A’s in the third inning before plating a fourth run in the fourth. Bibee couldn’t hang in there for five innings despite 11 runs of support, as Donovan Walton knocked him from the game with a two-run homer. The 27-year-old right-hander ends the day with a 4.35 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and a 142/54 K/BB ratio across 182 innings.

Bibee struck out seven and generated 16 whiffs on his way to improving to 6-15 on the season. He looks like a nice play in mixed leagues with a home start against the A’s on deck for next weekend.

Bibee got rare run support tonight, with the Guardians taking a 6-0 lead in the third, but he had to be pulled in the fifth after two doubles, a single that first baseman Nathaniel Lowe really should have made a play on and then a Pete Alonso homer. It’s the second straight start in which Bibee, whose velocity is down a bit, has allowed five runs, taking his ERA from 3.88 to 4.22. The Guardians did go on to win 9-5, though. It’s just the second time all year that they’ve scored more than six runs in a game started by Bibee. He’ll likely make his next start Monday against the White Sox.

Bibee managed a 28 percent Whiff rate and only allowed one hard-hit ball, but he allowed two walks, a bunt single and a 2-RBI double in consecutive order to lead off the fifth inning. Colin Holderman allowed the two inherited runners to score to stick Bibee with this final line. Bibee remains a coinflip to deliver fantasy value. He’ll try for better results against the Orioles next week.

Bibee found himself locked in a pitcher’s duel with Michael Wacha on Friday night. Both pitchers made it through four innings unscathed, but a leadoff double by Bobby Witt Jr. in the fifth inning wound up resulting in the first run of the night after Salvador Perez grounded out to bring Witt home from third two batters later. It was the only run Bibee would allow on the night before he was pulled in the seventh inning for Tim Herrin. Bibee has allowed three earned runs or fewer in each of his last three starts, but has only one win to show for his efforts. He’ll look to pick up his sixth win of the season in his next start, which is set for Thursday at home against the Blue Jays.

Bibee gave up runs in the third and fourth inning, the latter on a solo homer by Mickey Moniak. Outside of that it was a very strong outing for the right-hander that saw him generate 14 swing and misses, strike out six and give up just five hits while lowering his ERA on the 2026 campaign to 3.97. Bibee has not developed into an ace as many hoped he would, but he gets the job done more often than not. A chance to get it done again is scheduled for Friday against the Royals at home.

Cleveland was shutout in a Bibee start for the fourth time this year. Both he and Joey Cantillo have made 26 starts for the Guardians this season. Bibee has allowed 71 runs in 150 1/3 innings (4.25 RA/9). Cantillo has allowed 62 runs in 125 2/3 innings (4.44 RA/9). Bibee, though, is 4-13, whereas Cantillo has gone 9-7. Bibee will next face the Rockies in Coors, which might lead to some run support.

Bibee gave up a run in the second and three in the fifth. In spite of that, he pitched into the seventh, unfortunately. He walked back-to-back batters with one out in that frame — his only two walks of the game — and both came around to score after he departed. Tonight sums up Bibee’s season pretty well. He was perfect in the first, third, fourth and sixth innings, but he dropped to 4-12 after every single batter to reach against him either scored or knocked in a run. He’ll face the Padres next.

Bibee did everything right here, besides keeping the ball in the yard. It was the first time he’d reached 10 strikeouts in a single start since September of last season and his changeup was lethal, forcing seven swings-and-misses. On the flip side, the Mets smashed three home runs off him and all came from left-handed batters. All in all, it was still a solid start and Bibee left it with a 3.85 ERA, 110 strikeouts, and 38 walks across 138 innings. He’s lined up for a two-start week against the Tigers and Padres next week.

Bibee did what he could to hold the Diamondbacks in check all night. He scattered three hits and one walk over 7 1/3 innings, but did hit back-to-back batters in the fourth inning. Those two hit batsmen proved irrelevant, as he was able to force Max Kepler to line out to end the inning, but he ran into some trouble in the eighth. Bibee was pulled after allowing two of the first three batters he faced to reach base, and the Guardians’ bullpen wasted little time in making him pay. Reliever Erik Sabrowski immediately walked the first batter he faced to load the bases, and went on to allow back-to-back singles to Geraldo Perdomo and Gabriel Moreno to give the Diamondbacks a 3-1 lead. It was a tough way for Bibee to pick up his 11th loss of the season. He ends the month of July with a 2-2 record and a 4.76 ERA. His next start is scheduled for Thursday at home against the Mets.

Bibee stranded six baserunners through four scoreless innings before the Rays broke through in the fifth. Three hits and a sacrifice fly would put two runs on the board for Tampa Bay. The Rays would plate one more run in the sixth before Bibee’s day was done. He finished with a quality start, striking out five in the loss. The 27-year-old right-hander will take a 3.89 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, and a 97/37 K/BB ratio across 125 innings into a start against the Diamondbacks in Cleveland on Friday.

The Guardians have been averaging just three runs per game in Bibee’s starts this year, but they supported him with a season-high 10 runs while he was in the game tonight and 13 overall. After opening up 0-7 with a 4.57 ERA through the end of May. Bibee has gone 4-2 with a 2.88 ERA since the beginning of June. However, his peripherals, which suggest that he deserves that April/May ERA, have held very steady throughout. He’ll face the Rays on Saturday.

Bibee was solid on Saturday, holding the Marlins scoreless through six innings. He returned for the seventh and gave up a double with two outs. That would do it for him at 94 pitches with three strikeouts. He scattered five hits and four walks. The inherited runner would come in to score. The 27-year-old right-hander ends the first half with a 3.90 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, and an 87/34 K/BB ratio across 113 innings.

Bibee surrendered a two-run homer to Joc Pederson in the third. The other run came in the seventh after Cooper Ingle made a routine catch in left and threw the ball into the stands, not realizing that it was only the second out of the inning and giving the Rangers a run because Ezequiel Duran was on second base. It went as Bibee’s ninth loss, tying him with Michael Lorenzen for most in the majors, even though it’s the 15th time in his 18 starts that he allowed three runs or fewer. He’ll face the White Sox next.

Wins have not been easy to come by for Bibee, who remained 2-8 despite leaving with a two-run lead today. It wound up being blown by Cade Smith in the ninth. Bibee lowered his ERA to 3.78. He’s allowed five earned runs and just 12 hits over 26 1/3 innings in his four starts this month. He’ll pitch at home against the Rangers and White Sox next week.

Bibee dealt with a bit of poor luck in this outing. The first run he gave up was unearned due to a throwing error from rookie Khalil Watson. Then, Jeremy Peña hit a solo home run that cleared the Crawford boxes in left field by about one inch. Lastly, Bibee let two hitters reach base in the sixth inning before being yanked with one out. Reliever Matt Festa instantly – literally on the first pitch he threw – gave up a three-run home run to Jose Altuve that put Bibee on the wrong side of this decision. Things are just not going right for Bibee right now who will take a 4.03 ERA into his next scheduled start against the White Sox.

Bibee allowed just two hits and a pair of walks on the evening. Both of the hits that he did allow were solo homers — to James Outman in the third and to Spencer Torkelson to lead off the eighth. The 27-year-old hurler got 15 swings and misses on 91 pitches on the night — five on his sinker — while posting a strong CSW of 34 percent. Now 2-7 on the season, he’ll carry a 3.94 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and a 71/26 K/BB ratio (84 innings) into Thursday’s showdown against the Brewers in Milwaukee.

Bibee put together his best start of the season on Saturday, holding the Rangers scoreless over eight innings. He scattered three hits and two walks, tossing an efficient 54 of 87 pitches for strikes. He struck out three. The 27-year-old right-hander knocks a half run from his ERA, coming into the day with a 4.57 mark and ending with a 4.09 with a 1.23 WHIP and a 63/24 K/BB ratio across 77 innings. He’ll look to keep it going against the Tigers in Cleveland on Friday.

Bibee struck out five and walked one. He allowed an early homer to Jarren Duran but made it through six efficiently, finishing at 90 pitches. The 27-year-old hasn’t matched the sub-3 ERA he showed as a rookie in 2023, but his peripherals are mostly consistent year-to-year. A high HR/9 rate is hurting him this season. He’ll visit the Rangers’ pitching-friendly home park in his next start.
