Thread: Sean Burnett

  1. #1

    Pirates Sean Burnett

    Well, I'm watching the Yanks play Pittsburgh live at Legends Field, and Sean Burnett's pitching. This kid's got nasty stuff! Shitty defense and an awful catcher (Lerud?) led to him giving up a couple of runs, but he's got a nasty curve and a nice fastball. Only thin is, he tends to leave his pitches over the plate a bit much, but it is ST, so it could just be rust.


    Just saying.

    Yeah, Sean probably does have some rust. I'm pretty sure I want him starting in Triple A to start the year and then replacing the 5th starter about a month in a half into the season.

    That sounds like BCS.

    i really like burnett. have him start in indy to get the rust off, and he could be the sleeper in the rotation this year.
