Bradley

Bradley tossed a scoreless first inning, then gave up a run on two hits and a sacrifice fly in the second. He recovered nicely, cruising through four more scoreless innings, ending his day after six innings with six strikeouts. The 25-year-old right-hander has likely made his final start, ending a breakout season with a 3.73 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and a 205/76 K/BB ratio across 178 1/3 innings.

Bradley was outpitched by Walbert Ureña, but he matched Ureña’s nine strikeouts and walked just one. He’s now just one away from 200 strikeouts for the year. With the Twins essentially done at this point, he’ll probably pitch only once more next week against the Giants.

This was an odd outing for Bradley. He was practically unhittable, but really struggled early on with his command. He’d already walked four batters by the time there was one out in the third inning, yet found his way out of every jam. His splitter was a total mess at that point and Bradley leaned on his cutter to work in tandem with his fastball to stay out of trouble. Then, he leveled out afterwards to polish off his 13th quality start in 29 tries. He’s scheduled to face the Angels next time out.

Bradley gave up four hits, walked two and struck out six. He improved to 11-6 with the win. Bradley wasn’t quite as sharp as his last start, when he allowed one run in seven innings against the Tigers. He has a 3.95 ERA on the season. Bradley is lined up to face the Guardians at home next weekend.

Bradley gave up four hits, walked three and struck out nine. He improved to 10-6 with the win. Bradley had a 5.40 ERA in five August starts entering play Monday, but finished the month strong. He dominated the Tigers in what was ultimately a lopsided victory for the Twins. Bradley has a 3.85 ERA. He’s lined up to face the White Sox on the road on Sunday.

After a scoreless first inning, Bradley surrendered a two-run homer to Carlos Cortes in the second. He retired nine of the next ten batters over three more scoreless innings, including an immaculate frame in the fifth as he struck out the side on nine pitches. The A’s would get to him for two more runs on three hits in the sixth. Bradley returned to record two outs in the seventh inning before ending his day at 99 pitches, 72 for strikes, while collecting 11 strikeouts. The 25-year-old right-hander will take a 3.97 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, and a 169/63 K/BB ratio across 147 1/3 innings into a start against the Tigers in Minnesota on Monday.

Bradley, who struck out seven, departed with a three-run lead that was blown right away in the sixth, leaving him winless in seven straight starts now. He’ll pitch in West Sacramento against the depleted A’s next week.

Bradley also issued four free passes while striking out three batters in the contest. He served up a leadoff home run to Kyle Schwarber to open the game as part of a two-run opening inning, then Schwarber got him again for a two-run blast as part of a three-run fourth inning. He’ll try to put this one behind him and get back on track as he brings a 3.98 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and a 151/59 K/BB ratio (135 2/3 innings) into Wednesday’s battle against the Braves.

Bradley gave up five hits, walked two and struck out seven. He worked into and out of trouble in the first inning as the first four batters reached before he retired the next three in order. Bradley allowed a two-run single to Brice Turang in the fourth inning with the bases-loaded and two outs. He kept the Brewers off the scoreboard otherwise. Bradley has recorded at least six strikeouts in eight of his last 11 starts. He has a 3.76 ERA. Bradley’s lined up to face the Phillies at home next week.

He gave up seven hits in all while walking four. Bradley put himself in an immediate hole by giving up a two-run double to Josh Naylor in the first inning. Despite the number of baserunners, he managed to hold the Mariners to just one run the rest of the way. After striking out 10 batters in his last outing, Bradley recorded a season-low two strikeouts in this one. He’ll try to get back in the win column next weekend against the Brewers.
