Of course, one against the A’s and two against the M’s... needs a test. That's a good point but this is basically how you would expect an upper echelon fantasy SP to perform vs a bad lineup. He has the dodgers coming up in 10 days or so, if he shuts down that lineup then it's time to really start to celebrate. Edited August 7, 2020 by EmbargoLifted Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But then again, this is the schedule he has this season. There’s no game with the Yankees looming. (Is there? 🤔) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

UberRebel 545 Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I’m happy for the guy and agree that the change in scenery will mean different results. But I’m skeptical he can make that big of a leap (for example, top 20) based on how bad his fastball is. 90 mph! If anyone is willing to convince me otherwise I’m open to it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EmbargoLifted 902 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Dude just shut down / made the hot A's lineup look silly for 7 innings. I don't think I need to wait for the Dodgers to declare this guy a legit SP1. Also might be a candidate for steal-of-the-draft. All the peripherals are checking out -- but the sample size is still way too small to say for sure of course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B&F 879 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Looking like an ace. Interestingly his four seam velo is down almost a tick but it is a lot more effective. His walk rate is one of the best in baseball. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
papasmurf 999 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 No need to draft pitchers nowadays it seems. Just grab them off waivers since new ones break out every year. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EmbargoLifted 902 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 The A's are no slouch offense. They were ranked #12 in runs scored heading into this game, and according to Fangraphs "rest of season" projections, they have the 15th best projected offense going forward. Bundy handled a really good major league lineup twice now (both starts vs the A's). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blood Brother 1,863 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Man really just put on the Doc Holliday facial hair, threw his fastball less and his secondary stuff more, and suddenly turned into an Ace Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He was scheduled to start yesterday but they pushed him back a day. I’m guessing he wasn’t 100 percent going out there today. He looked like he was just trying to gut it out. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was listening in the car while driving, the commentator said it was crazy muggy and pretty much anything hit in the air was leaving the park. Pablos homerun barely left by the sound of it and adell lost track of where he was and kind of ran into the wall. Probably worse than it looked, alternatively he got out of a bases loaded jam, so could have been worse. Weather and extra day of rest wise, I’d give him a mulligan. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twentyone 5 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) I'm slightly hesitant to start him this week. He's going up against Seattle. He pitched a gem against them last time. The time before that he still got me 10 points, despite the fact that he lost the game. But [...] I'm rollin' the dice. I feel like this is a crucial start for him from a FBB perspective. He started off strong but, hasn't even gone 6 innings the last two times out. An iffy showing against a Mariners team that he's pitched pretty well against twice this year, and he's no longer set it and forget it for me.

If you can’t start a guy against Seattle, he shouldn’t be on your team. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly. He has 9 starts this year, and has allowed more than 3 runs ONCE. That game pumped his ERA to 2.48. This was following a CG 1 run game, and then a 7 IP 0 ER game. Must have been quite the slump since no one else noticed. Edited September 11, 2020 by Sternes 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
