Blade Tidwell - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Falls to Pirates Tidwell (0-2) took the loss Thursday against Pittsburgh, allowing two runs on two hits and five walks over five innings. He struck out five.

Impact Tidwell struggled with his command Thursday, throwing just 49 of his 95 pitches for strikes while issuing five walks, matching a season high. The 25-year-old Tidwell has dropped back-to-back starts, while giving up 14 runs over 20 innings in his last four outings. Overall, his ERA sits at 4.43 across 42.2 innings this season with a 1.24 WHIP and 36:18 K:BB. Tidwell's currently in line to face the Cardinals at home his next time out.

Tagged for three homers Tidwell (0-1) allowed six runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out four over five innings to take the loss versus the Diamondbacks on Friday.

Impact Tidwell hadn't given up multiple homers in an outing this season until this start, as all of Lars Nootbaar, Corbin Carroll and Tim Tawa tagged him for a long ball. Those big flies counted for all six runs on Tidwell's line. He's allowed 12 runs over his last 15 innings, but his scoreless start last weekend in Boston offered a glimpse of what he can do when he's on. Tidwell has a 4.54 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 31:13 K:BB over 37.2 innings across 13 games (five starts) this season. The Giants' battered rotation likely means Tidwell is safe in a starting role for the rest of the year, and he's projected to make his next start at Pittsburgh.

Strong start goes unrewarded Tidwell allowed three hits, two walks and a hit batsman while striking out seven over 5.2 scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Red Sox on Saturday.

Impact Tidwell allowed six runs in his last outing, which was by far his worst start of the year. He bounced back well in this road appearance, but the Giants' bullpen couldn't maintain the lead. Tidwell now has a 3.58 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 27:12 K:BB across 32.2 innings through 12 games (four starts) in the majors this season. He's lined up to make his next start at home versus the Diamondbacks.

Walks five in no-decision Tidwell allowed six runs on three hits and five walks while striking out one over 4.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Sunday.

Impact Tidwell threw just 35 of 63 pitches for strikes in this short start. While he wasn't knocked around that much, the walks proved costly. He had allowed just three runs over 10.2 innings across his first two starts of the year, and it's a little discouraging this poor showing came at home. Tidwell has a 4.33 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 20:10 K:BB across 27 innings over 11 outings (three starts) this year. He's tentatively lined up to make his next start at Boston.

Fares well in no-decision Tidwell allowed one run on four hits and a walk while striking out six over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Astros on Monday.

Impact Tidwell performed well, throwing 62 of 96 pitches for strikes, but he came up an out shy of his first career quality start. He's done well with three runs allowed over 10.2 innings over his first two starts this year, and he'll likely get the chance to end the campaign in the rotation. Overall, he's at a 2.78 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 19:5 K:BB through 22.2 innings over 10 games (two starts) in the majors. He's projected for a home start versus the Rockies over the weekend.

Handed another start Tidwell is slated to start Monday's game against the Astros in San Francisco.

Impact After dealing away Tyler Mahle and Robbie Ray last week, the Giants had two openings in the rotation, and Tidwell was summoned from Triple-A Sacramento to fill one of those spots. The 25-year-old right-hander acquitted himself well in his first start as a member of the Giants last Tuesday, taking a no-decision on the road against the Rangers while allowing two earned runs on six hits and one walk across five innings. Tidwell will be awarded a second turn through the rotation and will tentatively line up for two starts during the upcoming week, with a home start against the Rockies likely on tap next Sunday.

AUGUST 10 • ROTOWIRE

No-decision Tuesday vs. Texas Tidwell didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Rangers, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk while fanning three across five innings.

Impact Tidwell was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday and did a decent job across the board. He had been stretched out as a starter in Triple-A, and with the Giants dealing Robbie Ray ahead of Monday's deadline, Tidwell could make a case to stay in the rotation in the final two months of the regular season. He has a 4.38 ERA in 16 appearances (15 starts) at Triple-A and a 3.18 ERA in nine contests (one start) at the MLB level in 2026. If he stays in the rotation, his next start would be scheduled for next week at home against the Astros.

Starting Tuesday in Texas Tidwell was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

Impact With the trade deadline in the rearview mirror, the Giants have multiple rotation spots to fill and several bullpen spots to fill. Tidwell has a 3.13 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB in 31.2 innings over his last six starts at Triple-A and is confirmed to start Tuesday's game in Texas.

AUGUST 3 • ROTOWIRE

Sent back to minors The Giants optioned Tidwell to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday.

Impact San Francisco swapped Tidwell out of its bullpen in favor of a fresh arm in right-hander Gregory Santos, who was called up from Sacramento. Tidwell appeared in eight games during his month-long stint in the majors, pitching to a 3.00 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 10:3 K:BB in 12 innings. The right-hander could get stretched back out for a starting role at Sacramento.

Secures three-out save Tidwell earned a save against the Mets on Thursday, allowing two hits and striking out two batters over three scoreless innings.

Impact Tidwell was called up from Triple-A Sacramento ahead of the contest and ended up covering the final three innings for the Giants. The right-hander breezed through his outing, holding New York without a hit while throwing 24 of 37 pitches for strikes. He was rewarded with his first career save, though there's no reason to expect additional save opportunities to come his way given that he'll likely be deployed in middle and long relief.

Recalled from Sacramento The Giants recalled Tidwell from Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact After being sent down to Triple-A to begin the regular season, Tidwell will quickly receive a call-up to the majors to replace the injured Jose Butto (forearm). Tidwell, 24, gave up 15 earned runs over 15 innings with the Mets last year, but he kicked off the 2026 campaign by striking out three batters over 2.2 scoreless innings with Sacramento.

APRIL 2 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to Triple-A The Giants optioned Tidwell to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Tidwell struck out five across 5.2 innings during spring training but also had his share of troubles, surrendering seven earned runs on eight hits and five walks. The right-hander had a 9.00 ERA and 10:10 K:BB across 15 frames in his first taste of the majors last year, and it should only be a matter of time before the Giants bring him back up to the big club this season.

MARCH 17 • ROTOWIRE

Scoreless outing in spring opener Tidwell allowed one walk and struck out three across one scoreless inning in Saturday's 10-5 Cactus League win over the Mariners.

Impact Tidwell struck out three of the four batters he faced Saturday, tossing 13 of his 25 pitches for strikes. While the right-hander has mostly operated as a starter in the minors, he'll have an opportunity to make the Opening Day roster as a reliever with Jason Foley (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list and Sam Hentges (shoulder/knee) still ramping up. Tidwell was traded from the Mets to the Giants in late July but never saw action with the latter big-league club and also missed time due to a right shoulder injury. Over four appearances (three starts) with Triple-A Sacramento in 2025, the 24-year-old posted a 1.50 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and 24:5 K:BB across 18.0 innings.

FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Works past shoulder issue Tidwell (shoulder) was activated from the 7-day injured list Wednesday.

Impact Tidwell missed just under one month of action after experiencing a flare up in his right shoulder. He fired two scoreless frames in his first game since being activated Wednesday against Triple-A Round Rock, lowering his ERA to 3.28 in 11 appearances (49.1 innings) since June 4.

Undergoing MRI on shoulder Tidwell will undergo an MRI on his right shoulder after experiencing discomfort during a recent bullpen session, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Tidwell was acquired from the Mets at the trade deadline in the deal that sent Taylor Rogers to New York. Since being acquired by San Francisco, Tidwell has pitched in three games (two starts) at Triple-A Sacramento, registering a 1.69 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 23:5 K:BB across 16 innings of work. He's likely to be shut down for a little while.

Undergoing MRI on shoulder Tidwell will undergo an MRI on his right shoulder after experiencing discomfort during a recent bullpen session, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Tidwell was one of three players the Giants acquired July 30 in the deal that sent reliever Tyler Rogers to the Mets. The Giants assigned Tidwell to Triple-A Sacramento following his acquisition, and he pitched in three games (two starts) for the affiliate, registering a 1.69 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 23:5 K:BB across 16 innings. He may have been in line for a promotion to the big leagues at some point later this season, but the shoulder issue could end up delaying his Giants debut until 2026.
