Madison Bumgarner was one of the best pitchers in San Francisco Giants history. The future Hall of Famer is a one time World Series MVP while winning the World Series three times, a four-time all-star, and an NLCS MVP. He is one of the best postseason pitchers of all time along with having a great regular season career with him as well. He is looking for a new home and his time in San Francisco is likely up.
He is 30 years old so there is still a lot of good pitches left in Bumgarner’s arm. He would be a great addition to the White Sox because of what he would bring to the team. He would be their version of that veteran presence that announces to the rest of Major League Baseball that the White Sox are coming. He has been a Giant his whole career but coming to the White Sox would be a great move for both him and the organization.
He would come in and be at or near the top of the rotation. The rest of the guys in the White Sox rotation are all very young. He would be able to mentor them all and show them how to win. He might even have an effect on the position players as well because of his leadership and experience. He has done just about everything there is to do in baseball from a team aspect so his knowledge would go a long way for the White Sox. If they have a chance to get this done they really should.
