Mets' Blade Tidwell: Relegated to Syracuse
The Mets optioned Tidwell to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.
Tidwell picked up his first career win in the big leagues Wednesday against the Brewers, but not before giving up three runs over 4.1 innings. The 24-year-old now owns a 9.00 ERA and 2.20 WHIP through 15 frames in the majors and will head back to Syracuse in order to right the ship.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Picks up first big-league win
Tidwell (1-1) earned the win in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Brewers, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks over 4.1 innings. He struck out three.
Tidwell worked in a bulk role Wednesday after Huascar Brazoban pitched the first inning. The rookie right-hander was sharp early, holding the Brewers to just two hits through his first four innings. However, Tidwell would give up back-to-back homers to Christian Yelich and Jackson Chourio to open the sixth before Milwaukee scratched across a third run after New York turned to the bullpen. While it wasn't the finish Tidwell would have wanted, the Mets managed to hang on to the lead, giving the 24-year-old his first major-league win. Overall, Tidwell sports a 9.00 ERA with a 2.20 WHIP and 10:10 K:BB through his first 15 MLB innings. He'll likely head back to the minors soon with Sean Manaea (elbow) nearing a return from the IL.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Pitching behind opener Wednesday
Tidwell is slated to work in bulk relief behind opening pitcher Huascar Brazoban in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Brewers, Manny Gomez of NJ.com reports.
Tidwell was initially listed as the Mets' scheduled starter for Game 2, but the club made the late decision to use the right-hander behind an opener following a 7-2 loss to the Brewers in the first game of the day. The rookie will be making his fourth appearance of the season for the Mets, after previously allowing 12 earned runs in 10.2 innings across two starts and one relief outing. Though he'll be taking over the rotation spot that opened up after Griffin Canning suffered a season-ending Achilles injury last week, Tidwell may be headed back to the minors after his appearance Wednesday. Lefty Sean Manaea (oblique/elbow) will make a rehab start with Double-A Binghamton on Wednesday and could be ready to return from the 60-day injured list the next time the Mets require a fifth starter.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Replacing Canning in rotation
Tidwell is slated to start Wednesday's game against the Brewers at Citi Field.
Tidwell will take over the rotation spot vacated by Griffin Canning, who ruptured his Achilles tendon Thursday and is set to miss the remainder of the season. After he was called up from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Tidwell was put to work out of the bullpen later that night in the Mets' 9-1 loss to the Pirates, covering 3.1 innings and allowing four earned runs. He'll be ready to go Wednesday on the standard four days' rest, but Tidwell's body of work over a small sample of action in the big leagues won't inspire much confidence in his fantasy prospects. Through three appearances (two starts) with New York this season, Tidwell has turned in a 10.13 ERA, 2.44 WHIP and 7:8 K:BB over 10.2 innings. He'll likely be headed back to Syracuse as soon as Sean Manaea (elbow) is cleared to return from the 60-day injured list.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Works in relief Friday
Tidwell coughed up four earned runs on five hits and two walks over 3.1 innings of relief in Friday's 9-1 loss to the Pirates. He struck out one.
Tidwell endured a rough long-relief appearance, with most of the damage coming off a Bryan Reynolds three-run shot in the sixth inning. The 24-year-old remains a candidate to replace Griffin Canning (Achilles) in the rotation, but with an off day Monday, the Mets won't need a fifth starter until next weekend. Tidwell also has a brutal 10.13 ERA and 8:7 K:BB in 10.2 big-league innings this season and hasn't been dominant at Triple-A Syracuse this season, so it's possible that the Mets turn to another prospect such as Nolan McLean or Jonah Tong to plug the rotation hole until Sean Manaea (elbow) is ready to return from the 60-day injured list.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Back in majors
The Mets recalled Tidwell from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.
Tidwell takes the roster spot of Griffin Canning, who's been diagnosed with a ruptured left Achilles tendon and placed on the 60-day injured list. Tidwell appears to be the likeliest option to replace Canning in the rotation until the Mets get one or more of their other injured starters back. Tidwell has made two starts this season, posting a 9.82 ERA and 6:6 K:BB across 7.1 innings of work.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Set to rejoin big club
The Mets will recall Tidwell from Triple-A Syracuse prior to Friday's game in Pittsburgh, Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports.
He would appear set to fill the 26-man roster spot vacated by Griffin Canning, who is likely in line for an extended absence after suffering an Achilles injury in Thursday's win over Atlanta. Tidwell will be available out of the bullpen for now, but he is an option to fill Canning's rotation spot, at least until Sean Manaea (oblique/elbow) is ready.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Sent down to Syracuse
The Mets optioned Tidwell to Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Tidwell gave up two runs in 3.2 innings during his second major-league start Friday, but he still owns a 9.82 ERA and 2.59 WHIP in the bigs this year. He'll head back to Triple-A to clear a rotation spot in preparation for Frankie Montas' (lat) upcoming return from the injured list Tuesday, though the Mets will first bring up Chris Devenski and Tyler Zuber to provide extra depth in the bullpen.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Inefficient in second start
Tidwell didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Phillies, giving up two runs on four hits and three walks in 3.2 innings. He struck out four.
The rookie right-hander made his second spot start of the season for the major-league club, producing nine whiffs in an abbreviated outing. Although Tidwell didn't offer New York's injury-riddled rotation much length, as he threw just 43 of his 74 pitches for strikes, he kept the ball in the yard and held a formidable Phillies lineup to only four singles. Frankie Montas (lat) appears to be on the cusp of making his season debut, which will likely bump Tidwell back to Triple-A Syracuse.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Officially promoted to start Friday
The Mets recalled Tidwell from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.
Tidwell has been tapped as Friday's starter against the Phillies, and the 24-year-old will hope for a better outing than his first MLB start May 4 against the Cardinals in which he allowed six earned runs on nine hits and three walks across 3.2 innings. Tidwell was saddled with the loss in that game and struck out just two. He's not a recommended fantasy option versus Philadelphia.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Making spot start Friday
Tidwell will be called up from Triple-A Syracuse to start Friday's game against the Phillies, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
After being recalled from Syracuse on Thursday, Justin Hagenman was originally expected to be saved for Friday's game to either start or work in bulk relief, but he was pressed into action in New York's series finale in Atlanta, covering 2.2 scoreless innings out of the bullpen in the Mets' 7-1 loss. With Hagenman no longer available for Friday, the Mets will turn to Tidwell to fill the vacancy in the rotation. Tidwell will be getting his second career MLB start after he surrendered six earned runs across 3.2 innings in his debut outing May 4 against the Cardinals.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Called up ahead of start
The Mets selected Tidwell's contract from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of his scheduled start in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader with the Cardinals in St. Louis.
Tidwell is making his MLB debut in a spot start to give the Mets' rotation extra rest before he returns to Syracuse. Over his six Triple-A outings in 2025, the 23-year-old righty has delivered a 5.00 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 37:10 K:BB across 27 innings.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Demoted after rough MLB debut
Tidwell (0-1) was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse after the Mets' 6-5 loss to the Cardinals in Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader. He was dealt the loss after giving up six earned runs on nine hits and three walks across 3.2 innings. He struck out two.
The right-hander was likely to be demoted regardless of his performance in Sunday's matinee, but being optioned back to Syracuse is fitting after an ugly big-league debut. Tidwell has struggled to a 5.00 ERA through six starts with Triple-A Syracuse this season, so he may have a difficult time getting another MLB opportunity in the near future.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Coming up to big leagues
The Mets will call up Tidwell from Triple-A Syracuse during their weekend series in St. Louis, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.
Per Mike Puma of the New York Post, Tidwell will make his major-league debut in a start against the Cardinals on Sunday. Tidwell has posted a 5.00 ERA in his first six starts with Syracuse this season but has struck out 37 over 27 innings. The 23-year-old is likely to be in store for just one start before heading back to Syracuse.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Showed better velocity this spring
Tidwell topped out at 99 mph with his fastball in big-league camp this spring, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
The 23-year-old right-hander saw his control desert him at Triple-A last season as he issued an ugly 53 walks in 85 innings, but Tidwell reported to spring training in better shape and made a strong impression with both improved command and improved velocity. If those results hold up at Triple-A Syracuse to begin the 2025 campaign, Tidwell could be among the first pitchers called up when the Mets' rotation is in need of reinforcements.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Reassigned to minors camp
The Mets reassigned Tidwell to minor-league camp Tuesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.comreports.
Tidwell most recently threw two perfect innings -- one of which was an immaculate inning -- Saturday in a Grapefruit League game against the Rays. However, the 23-year-old righty finished last season with a 5.93 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over 85 innings in Triple-A, so the Mets will keep him in their farm system until he can demonstrate more consistent success over an extended period of time.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Dazzles in spring start
Tidwell struck out five batters over two perfect innings and recorded an immaculate inning in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays.
The 23-year-old right-hander needed nine pitches to strike out Josh Lowe, Eloy Jimenez and Jose Caballero in his second frame, after fanning Brandon Lowe and Christopher Morel to close out the first inning. Tidwell's prospect status tumbled last season when he was beset by control issues at Triple-A, but he posted a 2.41 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 44:11 K:BB over 37.1 innings at Double-A prior to that to earn the promotion. If Tidwell has corrected the issues that were preventing him from finding the plate consistently, he could be a factor in the Mets' big-league rotation at some point during the 2025 campaign. Per Adam Berry of MLB.com, Tidwell has trimmed his arsenal back to five pitches -- four-seam and two-seam fastballs, a changeup, a slider and a sweeper -- in an effort to put last year's stumble behind him.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Abandoned by control at Triple-A
Tidwell has a 6.15 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 67:53 K:BB in 79 innings across 18 appearances for Triple-A Syracuse.
Tidwell's ability to throw strikes has been very poor since his promotion from Double-A on May 21, when his stock was at an all-time high (2.41 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 44 Ks in 37.1 IP at Double-A). Even after Triple-A switched from automated balls and strikes in some games to only a challenge system in late June, there have been very few signs of improvement. He had a zero-walk game July 28, but still gave up four runs in six frames. From a results standpoint, his best Triple-A start may have been his most recent one Sunday, as he struck out four and walked two over five scoreless frames. Tidwell is talented enough to still develop into a quality starting pitcher if he shows up next season with improved control and consistency, as things may have snowballed on him this year for Syracuse. If it doesn't click next year, the Mets may explore how Tidwell's fastball/slider combo plays in relief.

Mets' Blade Tidwell: Promoted to Triple-A
Tidwell was promoted to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Tidwell will join Syracuse after producing a 2.41 ERA and 1.07 WHIP with 44 strikeouts over 37.1 innings in seven appearances, including five starts, with Double-A Binghamton this season. The 22-year-old will look to impress at Triple-A in order to earn a potential major-league promotion, which may not be far down the road.
