Jonathan Bermúdez - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Headed overseas The Rakuten Monkeys of the Chinese Professional Baseball League signed Mermudez to a contract Wednesday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

Impact Bermudez debuted with the Marlins this past season, allowing six runs over 6.2 innings, before being removed from their 40-man roster. The 29-year-old lefty has mostly been a starter in the minors, although it's not clear what role the Monkeys have planned for him.

Back at Triple-A Bermudez was sent outright to Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday, per MLB's transaction log.

Impact Bermudez was designated for assignment by the club Thursday and will report to Triple-A after failing to draw interest on the waiver wire. He owns a 6.46 ERA and 1.72 WHIP with a 28:13 K:BB across 23.2 frames this season for the Jumbo Shrimp.

Kicked off 40-man The Marlins designated Bermudez for assignment Thursday.

Impact In two appearances since being selected from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday, Bermudez allowed four earned runs across three innings while striking out one batter and walking two. He'll now give up his spot on the 40-man roster for Jeff Lindgren, who was selected from Triple-A in a corresponding move, and Bermudez will most likely pass through waivers unclaimed.

First major-league start Wednesday Bermudez will make his first major-league start Wednesday against the Pirates, Stephen Storm of the Marlins Radio Network reports.

Impact Bermudez's first two appearances with the Marlins have come in relief, but 17 of his 20 outings between Double-A Pensacola and Triple-A Jacksonville have been starts. His last start came more than three weeks ago, however, so the lefty will likely be a bit limited in how deep he'll be able to go into Wednesday's affair.

Selected from Triple-A The Marlins selected Bermudez's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.

Impact Just four days after being sent outright to Jacksonville, Bermudez will now rejoin the active roster to give the Marlins an additional bullpen arm capable of handling multiple innings. The 28-year-old southpaw allowed two earned runs in 3.2 innings during his MLB debut Aug. 27 and will presumably be used in long relief again while with the Marlins. Austin Kitchen was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

SEPTEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Remains in organization The Marlins outrighted Bermudez to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

Impact Bermudez is no longer on the team's 40-man roster but will remain in the organization as a depth arm. The lefty has been used primarily as a starter at Jacksonville, so he could get stretched back out.

DFA'd by Fish The Marlins designated Bermudez for assignment Saturday.

Impact Bermudez was optioned to Jacksonville shortly after he threw 3.2 innings of two-run ball in his MLB debut Tuesday, and the promotion of Jose Devers will now leave him without a spot on the 40-man roster once again. The 28-year-old southpaw has performed poorly since making the move up to Triple-A, posting a 5.74 ERA and 1.53 WHIP across 15.2 innings since the start of August.

Returns to Triple-A The Marlins optioned Bermudez to Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Miami selected the left-hander's contract from Jacksonville over the weekend, and he'll return to Triple-A after giving up two runs over 3.2 frames of long relief during Tuesday's contest. Bermudez had a 6.46 ERA over 23.2 innings for Jacksonville this season, and he's unlikely to see anything more than low-leverage opportunities down the stretch for the Marlins, if he even rejoins the MLB roster.

Joins big club The Marlins selected Bermudez's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.

Impact The 29-year-old was claimed off waivers from the Giants late in 2022 and is now on the cusp of making his MLB debut. Bermudez pitched well in 14 starts for Double-A Pensacola this season with a 2.53 ERA over 74.2 innings, but he's struggled to a 6.46 ERA in 23.2 frames for Jacksonville.

AUGUST 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Off 40-man roster Bermudez was designated for assignment Saturday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact The Astros made room for utility man David Hensley, whose contract was selected from Triple-A. Bermudez was not in the majors and had an 8.55 ERA through 67.1 innings at Triple-A Sugar Land.

AUGUST 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back in action at Triple-A Bermudez (hip) returned to action for Triple-A Sugar Land on July 22 and has given up eight runs on six hits and three walks while striking out nine over 5.2 innings in his two app...

Impact Though he never landed on Sugar Land's injured list, Bermudez was sidelined for about a month with right hip discomfort. The 26-year-old lefty served up three home runs in his first two outings since returning, adding to what has already been a frustrating season. Over his 57.1 innings with Sugar Land in 2022, Bermudez owns an 8.16 ERA and 1.79 WHIP.

AUGUST 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with right hip discomfort The Astros announced Thursday that Bermudez is dealing with right hip discomfort, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Bermudez hasn't taken the mound in over a week, and the hip injury provides an explanation for his absence. The southpaw hasn't been placed on the injured list, but it's not yet clear when he's expected to return to action.

JUNE 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to minor-league camp Bermudez was optioned to minor-league camp Thursday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Bermudez was added to the Astros' 40-man roster in Novemberand allowed a run on four hits and a walk while striking out one in one inning during his lone spring appearance this year. He'll presumably begin the 2022 campaign at Triple-A Sugar Land.

MARCH 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Protected from Rule 5 draft Bermudez had his contract selected by the Astros on Friday.

Impact Bermudez was added to the 40-man roster to prevent him from being poached by another team during the Rule 5 draft. The 26-year-old pitched well between Double-A and Triple-A in 2021 with a 3.24 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 146:34 K:BB over 111 innings.
