As a Giants fan, I’ll tell you what happened to Mad Bum he got in a dirt bike accident in 2017 and ever since that injury he has not been the same his final year with the Giants was not good and we all know what happened when he signed with the D-backs. It's a shame because he’s only 33 years old but I think he’s done. I’m grateful for what he did with the Giants during the dynasty years and especially in the 2014 playoffs but also was not a fan of his outbursts against opposing players.

I think I'll never recover emotionally from living this rise and fall. Since the very first time I saw him pitch, he immediately became my favorite player ever. And that may not mean a lot, since the first time I saw him, was in Game 1 of the WS, and I didn't even like baseball that much, back in the day. The only memories I had from baseball before him, was the 2011 WS, the one my favorite team win in dramatic fation. After that 2014 WS I never stop thinking of how much I felt in love with his pitching mechanics, personality, and the game itself. 2018 was the year when I got the necessary tools to watch baseball in my country, and I didn't miss a single game he pitch that year. No matter what, I'll never forget him. I hope an incredible bounce back, even that it looks impossible. If he pitch again, no matter how bad he does, I will be there to watch him, even if it hurts, just like all this past years. 😢 Funny that my favorite team, finish with him, my favorite player...

As a Red Sox fan living in San Francisco, I loved MadBum's grit and intensity during his glory days. Two things brought him down ( in my opinion anyway ). First was he pitched Too hard, Too often. That put an awful strain on his body. Then came the SVU accident. I think if the accident had never occurred he'd still be an above average pitcher. His body just couldnt handle all that stress.

Something weird in MadBums personal life. He "moonlights" under his wifes maiden name as a competitive rodeo rider of some kind. He's been really banged up doing that, and in 2017 he had a really bad offroad dirtbike accident. I don't think he fully recovered from that. He was only 28 or 29 at the time. Watch his numbers since then. He's not the same. I wonder if he had a head injury or two that went unreported.

Not touched on in the video is that the injury that seemingly derailed Bumgarner's career was him hurting his pitching shoulder in an offroad dirt biking crash in 2017. Players are humans of course, and just as prone to mistakes as the rest of us, but it is arguable that what derailed MadBum's career wasn't bad luck, but rather his own bad judgement in valuing a spot of risky fun over his own health and safety.

(8:46) I'm surprised you didn't mention that the runs scored in Bumgarner's only start were scored because of a fielding error by Bumgarner. I know that takes away from his otherwise fantastic performance, I just think it's interesting that he might have won that game if he had thrown to first and not third making his stats even better. I'm also surprised you didn't mention the dirt bike accident in 2017 as many people point to that moment as when his decline started.

I think he blew out his arm in the 2014 post season. He pitched so much so close together and was really never the same He had decent years after that, but you could already see the fall off in velocity on his fastball. Suddenly he was throwing in the high 80s instead of the mid 90s. Same thing happened to Tim Lincecum.

Not really in both cases. Madbum had three more great years after 2014, then in 2017 he had a dirt bike accident which pretty much wrecked his shoulder. Lincecum had a degenerative hip condition which at one point affected his velocity because he generated all his power from the violent torque he placed on his hips.

Great video! I will just throw out there that Sergio Romo was not the closer for the Giants in 2009 or during their initial World Series victory in 2010-it was Brian Wilson. And while Randy Johnson was on the 2009 team, he’s was more of a footnote in the team’s history that ultimately was just plugging a hole in the rotation for a season. And despite his stats, Bumgarner also went through a rocky period in the minors around 2008-2009. He had a significant dip in his velocity which was recorded to falling to the high 80s at one point. The Giants stuck with him however and the rest is history.

I am so torn on if MadBum should be in the hall of fame as most of his regular seasons were great, but he was never a favorite for a Cy Young award (though having to be compared to Kershaw was no help) but he usually ended up with an ERA right around 3.00 though he had great stretches of high 1.00's during a season. But he hit so well for a pitcher that he did single handedly win games and not being allowed to compete in the homerun derby was a ROYAL snub. And his record in the post-season might never be replicated it was that unbelievable from 2010-2016 but after 2017 you could see the difference in him, and he never adapted to post injury like Kershaw adapted to his age issues.

The same thing actually happened to Tim Lincecum. He was great for a few years, then the stats completely fell. The Angels took a chance with him, they cut him after a few months with a 8+ ERA. Looking at MadBum stats in 2023, I have no clue who's crazy enough to want to sign a guy like this. The Giants got him for cheap on a rookie contract and never paid him the same amount of money as what guys like Kershaw or Verlander make, but these guys did not tank the way he did either. I wish him the best since he brought wins to the Giants, but honestly I'm pretty confident his MLB carreer is over.

Any of them and l mean any of them dominate 3 World Series? Of course not. Regular season stats are fine but the goal of the game is to be world champion. A great season that ends before October isn't that great.

Accidents can be career killers. Calling him a zero is a low blow. He was an amazing pitcher. I remember his contribution to the sport. Yes, he did not consider doing tricks on a bike could be a career killer, but he is human and obviously enjoys his bike. He is not one dimensional as a person. Madison should have retired when he felt insulted by what he was offered for the next season. He joined the Diamondbacks and ended up designated for assignment. That was sad.
