As you no doubt saw from the beat writers and other talking heads, Madison Bumgarner had three pins removed from his broken hand and the prognosis was positive: the broken bone is healing properly. The timetable from there is that he can resume baseball activities — playing catch, launching snot rockets, etc. — the first week of May and remain on target to come off the 60-day DL the first day he’s eligible on May 25th.
The beat writers and other talking heads speculated just a bit that the Giants might not be in a rush to activate him as soon as he’s eligible, and if we look at the schedule around that time, then we see it’s four against the Cubs in Chicago followed by three at Coors Field.
