Blade Tidwell | Fantasy Outlook

Blade Tidwell offers two-start streaming upside despite difficult closing matchup

Tidwell has flashed real promise down the stretch, highlighted by pitching a career-high 6.2 innings of two-run ball his last time out and posting a 4.96 ERA over his past five starts. With ace Logan Webb sidelined for the remainder of the season, the young right-hander has stepped up as the number two starter for a fourth-place Giants club currently sitting at 64-92.

While his wipeout sweeper provides legitimate strikeout juice—yielding 42 punchouts across 51.2 innings this year—his 4.70 season ERA aligns closely with our expectations for a volatile young starter. Walks and pitch efficiency remain hurdles, confirming that his recent highs and lows are an accurate reflection of his developing skillset rather than an outright fluke.

Tidwell enters the week as a two-start pitcher with two home matchups, beginning today against Minnesota before closing out the week against the division-leading Dodgers. Our models project 9.2 innings with roughly seven strikeouts, making him an enticing volume play for managers chasing pitching counting stats despite ratio risk against Los Angeles.
