A lot of talk this offseason for the SF Giants will have to do with pitchers they should add, but they may have to consider whether they should hold onto young pitcher Hayden Birdsong who had an up-and-down campaign in 2025.
In spring training prior to the 2025 season, Birdsong was one of the most promising young players in camp. He pitched very well and was narrowly beat out by Landen Roupp for a spot in the rotation, but he pitched well enough to earn a spot in the rotation to begin the year.
