TXTaz 170 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) Surprised this hasnt been made already. 2 HRs opening day! Edited April 2, 2017 by jamesfredette Quote Link to post Share on other sites
My Dinner With Andre 5,805 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'd be concerned MadBum is going to start working harder on the hitting aspect of his game and less on the pitching 25 HRs and 4 ERA might sound good to him. It won't be as appealing for fantasy owners! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TribeFoo 1,432 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Guy had a perfect game through 5. Think I'll skip worrying about his pitching. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Short Porch 123 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 And the owner who is in a league that counts W instead of QS is going ape _________ right now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hatfieldodger 250 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 It's a shame Bum won't get the W today but owners should feel pretty good about the ros Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B&F 942 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Why did he come out after 88 pitches? Early in the season maybe? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The announcer said Bumgarner went to the coach and said that he'd given all he had tonight. Given the hitting performance and that it's the beginning of the year, i don't think it's anything to worry about. Edited April 3, 2017 by jamesfredette Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phillyphan21 772 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 The following is a factual statement. Madison Bumgarner currently has forty percent of the league's home runs and has double the home runs of each of the second place hitters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

At least my league counts Ws+QS as the cat, always makes these blows less painful. It's the way to go nowadays. Great start from Mad Bum, was looking dominant aside that one inning and wow 2 HRs already? He looks like a slugger to me, damn fantasy should start including pitchers hitting stats. Velo seemed up also, throwing 94 regularly when he's usually sitting 92. Good signs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hollywood42 120 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Dear Giants, Please score runs for Bumgarner. You've given him 1, 1, and 0 runs of support in his last 3 starts, while he's allowed 2, 3, and 1 respectively. You did give him 5 in his first start of the year, but your bullpen made sure he didn't get a win. Please do better Sincerely Annoyed Bumgarner owner Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Really why the hell would this be? Though you seem right unless it's just AZ's gun which would seem more likely. His velo seems to be around typical Mad-Bum again, it was never likely to expect someone with so many innings to suddenly increase velo. That's why I play in QS+Ws leagues (Fantrax), the Giants aren't going to give him much run support this year. That offense is offensive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
