Madison Bumgarner cannot find the strike zone in victory

by Jeff Krisko | Mon, Apr 4th 5:46pm EDT

Madison Bumgarner was roughed up in his first start of the season, throwing five innings while walking five and yielding as many hits. He struck out six and gave up three earned runs. He earned the win, despite his efforts.

Fantasy Impact:

MadBum could not find the strike zone to save his life, and he walked home a run in the first for only the second time in his career. He got off to an extremely rocky start, with a double play saving him from more damage in the first inning. Bumgarner is currently in the midst of a flu, and he worked through injuries in Spring Training, where he struggled. This may present a buy-low opportunity for you. He should be dialed in when he takes on the Dodgers this weekend in San Francisco.
