Another one run game? Great. Bum looking to go 5 with how many pitches he's throwing.

3 walks already. He doesn't look right.
Dang, 10 baserunners in 4 innings! That is not very Bumesque. What happens to the starting rotation if he ends up back on the dl?

He hasn't been the same since the dirt bike injury.

I was thinking about this today. And it hit me that four years ago is a long time, especially for pitchers. Maybe he's just not the same, even if he's still one of the better ones on the staff.

He's holding back so he can throw strikes (good) and because he doesn't need to throw harder because his off-speed pitchers are so nasty (also good), but I really want to see him hit 105 one of these days (as long as it doesn't blow out his arm - bad)
