After 12 years in the Giants organization, Madison Bumgarner is now an Arizona Diamondback. How did that happen? There are a couple of theories floating around.
Let's first go to former Giants outfielder Michael Morse. Morse spent the 2014 season and part of the 2017 season in San Francisco until suffering a career-ending injury during a brawl instigated by Hunter Strickland and Bryce Harper. Morse was on KNBR's Papa and Lund on Wednesday, telling the hosts that the Giants offered Bumgarner an extension in 2017, but the total was so low that he continued to hold it against the team.
