Starting season in bullpen
Birdsong will work out of the San Francisco bullpen to begin the season after Landen Roupp was named the team's fifth starter Monday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Birdsong and Roupp were the final two candidates for the last spot in the rotation after the Giants optioned Kyle Harrison to Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday. Despite recording a 0.75 ERA across 12 Cactus League innings this spring, Birdsong will head to the bullpen and likely serve in a long-relief role while he waits for a starting role to open up.
