Can't keep ball in yard Wednesday
Bradford (0-4) took the loss Wednesday as the Rangers were downed 9-2 by the A's, surrendering five runs on seven hits -- including three home runs -- and a walk over four innings. He struck out three.
Analyse
It was the southpaw's worst performance since coming off the IL for his season debut in early August after completing his recovery from an internal brace procedure on his elbow. Bradford has been taken deep only once in his first five starts, but Henry Bolte got to him for a pair of two-run shots in this one, while Zack Gelof also tagged him for a solo homer. Bradford saw his ERA inflate from 3.42 to 4.45 as a result, and through 30.1 innings he carries a 1.58 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB. He'll try to bounce back in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road early next week in Seattle.

Takes loss versus Milwaukee
Bradford (0-3) took the loss Friday against the Brewers after allowing three runs on nine hits over 5.2 innings, walking two without a strikeout.
Analyse
Bradford hasn't exactly been a strikeout machine -- he's yet to record more than five punchouts in any of his five outings this season -- but this is his first goose egg in the category. With a 13:6 K:BB and 1.52 WHIP in 26.1 innings across his five starts, it's hard to trust Bradford in most fantasy formats, as he's giving up a lot of traffic on the basepaths and isn't recording enough strikeouts to compensate for that. His next start is projected come at home against the Athletics.
