Kai-Wei Teng Emerges as Potential Giants Bullpen Arm

San Francisco Giants pitcher Kai-Wei Teng, despite a 6.37 ERA in 29.2 IP in 2025, is showing promise as a valuable bullpen arm. The 6'4", 241 lbs right-hander's fastball velocity reaches 94-95 mph in relief, effectively pairing with his sweeper, which held batters to a .191 average. He recorded 31 of his 39 strikeouts from these two pitches. After being briefly DFA'd in 2024, Teng demonstrated strong September performance with 27 K's in 16.1 IP, though control remains a work in progress. He has two major league options remaining.
