I just went ebay to check out his stuff for sale. High end cards are nowhere the price of recent not-nearly-as-good players. Any reason why? This guy has to be top 1 or 2 pitchers of the decade thus far.

ALMOST a no-no, unlike some of the other 'advertised / hyped" on mlb.com, but...
speculation, of course, but MY personal opinion / thought is that the 'extended' offensive inning (Giants 7th) sucked a bit of momentum out of the Giants / Bum with the 2 insurance runs.
with 14 K's and only 1 BB, and with the exception of that one - solid - hit, MadBum was otherwise untouchable.
again, JMO, but one helluva great individual performance.

He's a fun pitcher to watch with that side arm sling curve. I'd really love to see him in the HR Derby. Watching a .182 hitter launch a few and maybe beat a "hitter" would be classic.

I have a couple of cards of his that I've had listed for months. They aren't anything super spectacular, but the prices I have them for are really low, yet no takers. I too, don't understand the lack of love from collectors.

He has a sh!tty name. Collectors just can't get behind him. (Sorry, couldn't resist).
