Doesn't factor into decision Bieber allowed three runs on three hits while striking out seven against one walk on Tuesday against the Athletics, but didn't factor into the decision.

Impact Bieber allowed two runs in the third, and another run came across to score in the sixth on a wild pitch. The right-hander has gone six innings in both of his outings this year, and he picks up another quality start despite not factoring into either decision. He's scheduled to take the mound again Monday in a matchup with the Yankees.

Takes tough-luck no-decision Bieber did not factor into the decision Thursday in Seattle despite six scoreless innings on six hits and no walk. He struck out three.

Impact Bieber and Luis Castillo traded zeros for six frames before the Mariners won a battle of the bullpens. Worth noting is that Bieber's velocity was down across the board, although it was also down last season and he made it work. It should tick back up as the year moves along, but his strikeout upside will remain limited unless he can rediscover his Cy Young velocity.
