Bumgarner is averaging 43.1 FanDuel points per game over his last six starts. In that span, he has posted three outings of at least 45 points while registering at least 30 points in each start.
For the season, he owns a 3.41 SIERA with a 6.3% walk rate and 27.4% strikeout rate, the latter of which is a career-best clip.
Tonight, he takes on the Colorado Rockies in a home start at AT&T Park. The Rockies, per usual, have a good offense, ranking third in wOBA (.338), but Colorado -- again, per usual -- is a lot less intimidating on the road, boasting just a .297 wOBA away from Coors Field. Colorado's implied total of 2.67 runs in the day's lowest mark by a significant margin.
Add to that the fact Bumgarner is limiting opposing hitters to a .245 wOBA in his home starts, and it's easy to see why he's our top-ranked arm for today.
