Stellar in MLB debut Bibee (1-0) earned the win Wednesday, allowing one run on six hits and zero walks over 5.2 innings during a 4-1 win over Colorado. He struck out eight. Impact Bibee, whose elevation came during a stretch when Cleveland plays six games in five days, was sharp and composed during his MLB debut, with the lone run on his ledger coming after a leadoff double and a bloop base hit in the sixth. He was taken out after inducing a double-play ball and ended with eight strikeouts, displaying the swing-and-miss stuff that led to a stellar first season in professional ball last year. Bibee and Logan Allen both impressed during their respective MLB debuts this past week, but with the looming returns of Aaron Civale (oblique) and Triston McKenzie (shoulder) from the injured list, there may not be enough roster spots for the youngsters to stick around long term. Either way, Bibee is certainly a name to watch moving forward after dicing up Colorado.
