Madison Bumgarner wasn’t ready to put in the effort to fit in

When a team has too big a contract to carry and no one else wants it, there are no 36 solutions. The club can either release the player or keep him.

The Diamondbacks had the debate with Madison Bumgarner. That said, as long as the club wasn’t going anywhere, it was just as well to keep it.

But this year, it’s going well. And as he took the place of another, he was released.

Paying a guy millions of dollars to stay home isn’t always an easy decision. That said, in the case of MadBum, the decision had to be made.

What we note in The Athletic’s article on his late career in Arizona is that the pitcher still had the taste of winning, but he didn’t always make the effort to do so.

For example? His off seasons were really dead (he sometimes didn’t touch a ball), he didn’t want to study his opponents too much, etc.

This technique, it works when you are at the top of your game. But for a pitcher on the decline, it’s pretty ordinary in 2023.

But above all, he didn’t want to try new techniques.

When his pitching coach suggested he step up to the plate to get out of his bad streaks, he refused, citing that he’s always operated the same way.

One, his techniques were working maybe at 25 years old. But above all, at 33, when the batters adapt and the pitcher’s body does not follow as much as before.

If the guy didn’t want to adapt, it’s hard to pity him. It’s also hard to believe he could bounce anywhere else.

Besides, the rumors are not exactly numerous in his case…
