Cards go for MadBum then extend him in the off-season? Kind of been their go-to for awhile on how they get guys on the team long term.

There's no real "favorite" or anything for Bumgarner. He works basically anywhere, and he'll probably just go to the highest bidder in the winter. He already signed one insanely team-friendly deal.

He's never been much of a prospect, but the upper-level results are at least interesting. He's still only at 19 MLB innings, and that type of sample is always going to be misleading. He's not going to keep stranding 92 of his baserunners, particularly with pedestrian strikeout and swinging-strike rates.

Maybe he's a decent fifth starter for them, but I'm not going to get too excited him based on three starts -- the best of which came against a pretty timid White Sox lineup

Ok, I'm gonna wrap up for the week. Feel free to ask me more questions or sling more insults my way on Twitter: @Adams_Steve.

Jeff will chat later this week -- likely on Thursday (but perhaps Friday... schedule a bit TBD, sorry). Mark on Sunday. Tim next Monday. I'm off next week so I'll see about getting one of the others to fill in for me!

Enjoy your week everyone. Thanks for chatting.
