Madison Bumgarner was the tenth pick of the 2007 Amateur Draft, and two years later, he made his debut for the Giants.

Bumgarner would entrench himself in the Giants rotation the year after in June and became a big part of San Francisco's World Series win that year.  Year by year, Bumgarner took over as the ace of San Francisco's staff and played a more prominent role in the Giants' 2012 World Series win. 

From 2013 to 2016, Bumgarner was named to the All-Star Game, finished every year with an ERA under three, and had at least 199 Strikeouts.  Bumgarner was in the top ten in Cy Young voting in all of those seasons, and his hitting gained him two Silver Sluggers. 

What will forever keep Bumgarner in the Giants zeitgeist was his spectacular performance in the 2014 playoffs, where he won the NLCS MVP and World Series MVP, the latter seeing him allow only one over 21 Innings.  It is arguably the best performance by any Giants hurler in the post-season.

Bumgarner left San Francisco as a Free Agent for the Diamondbacks, leaving the Bay Area with a record of 119-92 with 1,794 Strikeouts.
