Secures 200-strikeout season Bradley (12-6) allowed one run on three hits and three walks while striking out six over six innings to earn the win over the Giants on Tuesday.

Impact Bradley gave a strong performance this time, throwing 104 pitches (67 strikes) to collect his third straight quality start. The right-hander has given up one run or less in four of his last seven starts. He's at a 3.73 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 205:76 K:BB through 178.1 innings over 31 starts. Since Minnesota is off Thursday, it's likely Bradley has completed his work this season.

Strikes out nine Bradley allowed three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out nine over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Thursday.

Impact Bradley has allowed 12 runs over his last 31.2 innings while posting a 41:11 K:BB in that span. His strikeout numbers have fluctuated at times this year, but he's ending the campaign on a high note in that regard. The 25-year-old is now at a 3.81 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 199:73 K:BB across 172.1 innings over 30 starts on the year. Bradley's last start of the campaign is projected to be in San Francisco next week.

Six scoreless frames in no-decision Bradley didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Guardians after allowing one hit and four walks while striking out six over six scoreless innings.

Impact Bradley worked around some early control issues, walking the leadoff hitter in each of the first three innings without allowing Cleveland to capitalize. Travis Bazzana supplied the Guardians' only hit against him with a leadoff single in the fourth, and no runner advanced beyond second base during Bradley's six frames. Bradley has been hit-or-miss of late. He has allowed one or fewer earned runs in three of his last five starts, but he gave up four earned runs in the other two in that span. The strikeouts have been piling up, though -- he's on a run of five straight outings with at least six punchouts. Bradley is expected to make his next start at home against the Yankees.

Punches out six in 11th win Bradley (11-6) notched the win against the White Sox on Saturday, allowing four runs on four hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out six.

Impact Bradley continued to deliver in the strikeout department in a shaky outing, tallying at least six punchouts for a fourth consecutive start. The right-hander has pitched at least five frames in 15 of his last 16 outings, but he's walked multiple batters in all but one of his last 11. He'll carry a career-best 3.95 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 184:68 K:BB over 159.1 innings into his next scheduled appearance against Cleveland.

Strikes out nine in win No. 10 Bradley (10-6) notched the win against the Tigers on Monday, allowing one run on four hits and three walks in seven innings. He struck out nine.

Impact Hao-Yu Lee left the lone blemish in Bradley's line with a sixth-inning solo shot in an otherwise dominant performance by the hurler. Control remains a bit of an issue for the right-hander, who has walked multiple hitters in nine of his last 10 starts, but he's tallied at least seven punchouts in three straight outings. He's scheduled to close a two-start week against the White Sox this weekend in Chicago, where he'll take a 3.85 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 178:66 K:BB over 154.1 innings.

Fans 11 but takes loss Tuesday Bradley (9-6) took the loss against the A's on Tuesday after allowing four runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out 11 over 6.2 innings.

Impact Bradley matched his season high in strikeouts and made history along the way, striking out the side on nine pitches in the fifth inning for the first immaculate inning in Twins history. However, Carlos Cortes tagged him for a two-run homer in the second, while Tommy White and Donovan Walton added RBI hits in the sixth. Despite the loss, Bradley generated double-digit strikeouts for the fifth time this season and pushed his season total to 169 across 147.1 innings. He's tabbed to make his next start next week against the Tigers.

Fans seven in no-decision Wednesday Bradley didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 6-4 win over Atlanta, allowing one run on two hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out seven.

Impact A sixth-inning meltdown by Kody Funderburk cost Bradley his 10th win of the season and first since the All-Star break, but the right-hander still put together a strong outing as he tossed 56 of 88 pitches for strikes. Bradley's been erratic in the unofficial second half, and over seven starts and 38 innings he's managed a 4.74 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 40:22 K:BB to go along with his 0-2 record. He'll look to get back in the win column in his next trip to the mound, which is scheduled to come on the road early next week against the A's.
