Follow On X: https://x.com/PicksOffice San Francisco's Hayden Birdsong has struggled of late, especially in his last two starts, where he has given up 12 earned runs and four home runs over just 6.1 innings. Those starts were against some of the weaker clubs, so it is even more concerning for that form as he now goes on the road to face the Athletics. On the bump for Oakland is Osvaldo Bido, who has shown consistency in this season. Bido has a 3.92 ERA and 1.26 WHIP across 11 appearances. He has been pretty good at preventing big innings, as he has allowed two earned runs or fewer in three of his past four starts. Oakland has won four of its last five and 11 of its last 18 at home, thanks to stable efforts from Bido. The Athletics bullpen has been a real highlight of late, logging a 2.65 ERA over their last 10 games. On the other side, Giants offense has not fared so well, with only a .225 team batting average in the same period.
