As we know, Madison Bumgarner, Johnny Cueto and Jeff Samardzija are safe atop the rotation. That’s actually a good thing for them because they are the ones off to a slow, which of course veterans with guaranteed spots don’t really care about spring training stats.
Bumgarner has given up 3 runs (2 earned) on 4 hits through 4.2 innings pitched, but he has struck out 9 batters.
Through one official start, Cueto gave up 2 runs on 3 hits and a walk over 2 innings.
Samardzija has been the most alarming giving up 5 runs (3 earned) on 6 hits and 4 walks over just 3.
