He was a first round draft pick back in 2012 and is an unrestricted free agent entering his fifth year in the league.

OAKLAND — He’d already repeated himself multiple times, but Bruce Bochy wanted to make things very clear. He lobbied for Madison Bumgarner to hit in place of the designated hitter, not the other way around. The manager even recalled Bumgarner thinking it was a joke. But it certainly wasn’t, and it took all of one […]

OAKLAND — Bruce Bochy genuinely believed Madison Bumgarner bettered the Giants’ lineup more than any other hitter on the bench. As Bochy’s 10-year reign with the Giants would indicate, he’s been right more than he’s been wrong. Bumgarner as the catalyst to a six-run inning, and helped the Giants (50-31) salvage an 12-4 win against […]

The Golden State Warriors have been linked to several free agent big men and within an hour of free agency starting, two of them of are reportedly about to be swept off the market.

Listen, I’m as sick of the non-stop Kevin Durant banter as all of you are. He’s holding the sports world hostage until he decides which team he’ll play for. These next few days are going to be full of overanalyzing the tiniest rumors. It’s high school all over again. One thing is for sure: If […]

For the first time in 40 MLB seasons, a team will forgo using the DH and elect to have the pitcher bat instead. That team is the San Francisco Giants, and that pitcher turned hitter will be Madison Bumgarner. Bruce Bochy told Andrew Baggarly about the decision after Wednesday’s loss in Oakland. The last time a […]

OAKLAND — It doesn’t take much for Jake Peavy to snap on the mound. He might fire a pitch in the dirt. A close play could go against the Giants. He might be walking off the mound after a long, treacherous inning. Usually though, he’s shouting at himself. That wasn’t the case Wednesday night. Billy […]
