Dylan Bundy Thread

[kg orioles]

Number 5 I think your right but do not believe it was as extensive as Bundy but good comparison. Both highly touted that had arm trouble .

Can someone name another pitcher with a injury history as long as Bundy that bounced back to a stellar career? I am just curious because I finally am in the trade now camp.

During the next two seasons, xxxxx struggled with arm injuries. He threw just 40 innings the following year and was sent to rehabilitation. He had surgery and missed the entire next season. He was placed on waivers and was left unprotected in the expansion draft one month later, but was not claimed.

Know who? Hint....he did come back pretty good.

This is a tough one. Thinking about when there were expansion drafts as the starting point.

While I was considering different pitchers, I was looking at various careers. Not necessarily relevant to the question, but in my perusing I came across this little nugget, which I found amusing. David Wells is listed at 6-3 187lbs on his BBRef page. That certainly was an early career weigh-in.

Good one. He was almost out of baseball at age 22.

Scott Kazmir dealt with injuries ...sure there are others.

I suspected it was him, but had no idea Palmer was left unprotected in the expansion draft. Talk about an oversight!

[Scotto]

Well I know it didn't take much, but my optimism in Bundy has been restored!!

Of course, Bundy did not have the short but substantial success 22 did before his injuries.

I see that Bobby Bundy has recovered from a torn ACL, is expected to be a full go this spring and has re-signed with the O's. Would love to see him make it to the majors some day.

Is he a reliever now?

The sad thing for Bundy is that contract he signed, may cost him a lot of money in the future. Instead of going through a normal rehab and development at AA,AAA, he is forced to do it at the big league level. It will likely slow his progress as a starter. It's too bad the contract language couldn't deal with injuries and actual service time.
