Title: How Madison Bumgarner Became the Greatest Pitcher in WS History
Current Fam: 610
Don't forget 2-0 18IP 0R/ER performances in Wild Card!
He was a playoff machine!
When there was something on the line Mad Bum just seemed to elevate his game. He almost felt like the next closest thing to a Randy Johnson at times. And don’t get me started with his bat (boy do I miss NL pitchers batting). As a giants fan I’m so thankful he had his prime here with us and showed us what it was like for a pitchers to take the team on his back and say don’t worry we are going to win.
He was something special for you Giants fans for sure. 3 Chips in 5 years is unbelievable. Closest thing to a "Dynasty" in baseball since the Yankees 3-Peat over 2 decades ago.
Dodger fan. Bum was amazing. Dominated the playoffs. If Kershaw had half his success in the playoffs he would be up there with the best of all time.
I think he's already up there with the best of all time, but you're right if he had Bumgarner's stats in the playoffs the argument of him being in the top 3 would definitely be there.
You must be happy he re-signed last night! Although I think we all were expecting it to come at some point...
The 2014 WS game 7 is probably my favorite postseason game ever
I'd have to agree with you. Game 7, bottom 9, 2 outs, runner on third, only up by 1 run. That's where legends are born.
Glad all his good years were with my Giants, hes forever Giant and will always be a hero and legend to us
IMO he’s a HOF. Everyone ages and most have rough last couple years before they retire.
Imagine if kershaw had bumgarners playoff numbers. He’d be the undisputed GOAT
MadBum was such a savage. Old-school country hardballer that didn't take any crap and he let you know it too. Oh and he could hit bombs as well!

Prime Madbum was something else!
Man, he was a stud in SF. Dbacks released him. Will someone sign him?
I sure hope so! He was a beast in the early 2010s
Hall of Famer
As a Nats fan they dominated us in the 2010s playoffs I hated playing him
The D-Backs really could’ve used him in last years WS
prime Madbum would have definitely made that series a lot more close.
Would love for you to do best WS hitter (David Ortiz)
I just checked his World Series stats and wow. Did not realize he was that dominant. I'll put that on the vid ideas list for sure :)
ima call it right now some team gonna give him a chance and he gonna pitch into his mid 40s and might win a pitching award in his 40s
I would also love to see him go out on a high note!
Nah he’s cooked😂
Talk about a flash in the pan, truley earned the nickname “The Bum”
Fun fact about mad bum he dated a girl with the exact same name
This is actually true!
thats actually false they went to South Caldwell together but they never dated
Mad bum the goat
Bob Gibson
I sent my reasoning behind picking Madbum to someone else in the comments, here it is.
“I respect the Gibson choice, but let me explain my thought process behind backing Madbum as the best.
It's hard to compare standard stats because Gibson pitched in a time where the mound was higher, thus making the league much more pitcher friendly than when Madbum pitched.
But there are relative stats to use such as cWPA. Which stands for championship win probability added. With a change of +/- 100 = 1 World Series game won or lost.
There are also stats such as the standard WPA which stands for win probability added. With a change of +/- 1 = 1 win added or lost
Bob Gibson pitched 81 innings in the WS and had 72.7% cWPA, and .99 WPA.
MadBum pitched 36 innings in the WS and had 121.8% cWPA, and 2.13 WPA.
That's my thought process behind picking Madbum as the most impactful/best in World Series history.
Again respect the Gibson choice, just explaining why I made a video on Madbum rather than him.”
I call bullshit! Whitey Ford pitched 33-2/3 consecutive scoreless innings in the World Series.
He had great stats in the competition for sure! But I still have to go with Madbum because In terms of championship win probability added Ford only added 27.2% in 146 IP while Madbum added 121.8% in just 36 IP.
Shame he just lost it all
Agreed, he was one of the most clutch pitchers in the game. Could always count on him in the playoffs.
Ever since he’s departing from the giants, people forgot who he was 😞
Not me! I still appreciate him!
He lost it all like there’s no tomorrow hahaha
Bob Gibson went 7-2 in 9 WS starts, completing 8 with 2 shutouts, with a 1.89 ERA. 92 Ks and 55 hits in 81 IP. Bumgarner was great but not Bob Gibson great in WS history.

@@3-0Greenlight I appreciate the explanation. Mad Bum was an absolute beast in his era. I just wish we would have SP's that throw more innings.
You're right it's pretty crazy to look at pitchers stats from even just a few decades ago to now and see the dramatic change in complete games. Last season only two pitchers (Alcantara and Lyles) pitched 3 complete games. @@VonRye
But where is he now🤡. Kershaw is wayy better than
Regular season wise without a question. Not many people can stack up to his numbers in recent memory, and he's still going at an elite rate.
Bob Gibson>Madison Bumgarner
I agree, his career was something else. But in the World Series, Madbum takes the cake.
That was then! He’s washed up and retired now!! SMH!! 🤦♂️
Still the GOAT of the WS.
Exactly
