San Francisco Traded A Reliever For A Starter And Then Used Him In Relief

Tidwell has walked four men in seventeen innings as a Giant, a rate of 2.1 per nine. He walked 35 in 72 innings at Sacramento this season, 37 in 97 Triple-A innings last season, and ten in fifteen with the Mets. Every other sample on his record says he walks people, and San Francisco is buying about five innings tonight.
