Via FanGraphs, Bradford's gamelogs:
| Date | Team | Opp | IP | TBF | H | HR | SO | BB |
| 24-May | TBR (A+) | MIN | 1 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 27-May | TBR (A+) | @PHI | 1 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 30-May | TBR (A+) | @NYY | 1 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 0 |
| 2-Jun | TBR (AA) | FLA | 1 | 6 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 1 |
| 15-Jun | TBR (AA) | LAD | 1 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 17-Jun | TBR (AAA) | PHI | 1 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
Don't worry about the hits column, he's playing with weaker defense than the Rays offer. The encouraging, and probably obvious sign is Bradford's K/BB ratio. In recent years, Bradford's K/BB ratio has decayed, mostly due to a sudden decrease in strikeouts. Which doesn't make a ton of sense to me because nothing changed in Bradford's approach.
Also worth noting, Bradford's role in the movie adaptation of Moneyball will be filled by rapper/actor Mos Def.

Poor form in that last line, my friend. Poor form.
RD over and out.

My stance on the bullpen all year has been "wait for Bradford"
I sure hope he doesn’t let me down. Does anyone know when the last time he gave up a home run was?
