Madison Bumgarner Placed on 10-Day DL with Rib, Shoulder Injuries

San Francisco Giants ace Madison Bumgarner was placed on the 10-day disabled list Friday with bruised ribs and a sprained left shoulder following a dirt bike accident, according to 95.7 The Game's John Dickinson.

The accident reportedly occurred during the team's off day in Denver. San Francisco is slated to open a three-game series against the Colorado Rockies on Friday night.

Bumgarner has been one of the most effective and durable starting pitchers in Major League Baseball since joining San Francisco's rotation on a full-time basis in 2011.

The four-time All Star and 2014 World Series MVP is a workhorse, entering the 2017 campaign having started at least 31 games and thrown at least 200 innings in six straight seasons.
