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.
Bradley had a strong performance, 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.

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.
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 come in San Francisco next week.

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.
Bradley worked around some early control issues, as he walked 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 allowed one or fewer earned runs in three of his last five starts, but he gave up four earned runs in both of the other two outings in that span. The strikeouts have been piling up -- he's on a run of five straight outings with at least six punchouts. Bradley is lined up to make his next start at home against the Yankees.

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.
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.

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.
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.

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.
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 lined up to make his next start next week against the Tigers.
