Blade Tidwell - 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.

Hayden Birdsong - Struggles in Cactus League opener Birdsong didn't factor into the decision during Saturday's 10-5 Cactus League win over the Mariners, allowing five earned runs on three hits -- including a home run -- and two walk...
Impact Birdsong started Saturday's matchup and immediately surrendered two singles and a walk before giving up a grand slam to Miles Mastrobuoni. After opening the 2025 campaign as a reliever and joining the rotation in mid-May, Birdsong was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento in July and never returned following a disastrous 10-start stretch in which he recorded a 6.17 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 43:27 K:BB across 42.1 innings. The right-hander is expected to compete for a bullpen spot on the Opening Day roster.
