The other day a friend asked me if Bumgarner actually had a win for the D-Backs. Since last night we no longer have to check it, because Mad Bum got his first non-asterisk win for the D-Backs. He almost got a quality start as well, but hey, one thing at a time, people.
I hear you: “his FIP indicates he was a bit unlucky”...bla bla bla....if you don’t earn 20MM+ a year you get DFA’d for an ERA that almost hits double digits.
Two weeks on aaaand Bukauskas gets the call up. The concession stands at Chase Field don’t know much about service time but the D-Backs do.
