azeri98 822 Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Either Burnes or Woodruff will be moved to the pen once Nelson comes back, Maybe even Chase Anderson gets back in if these 2 guys continue to get lit up Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Who knows when Nelson is coming back, and how he’ll pitch. Supposedly a AAA start soon for Nelson, but I need to see him pitch well before I’d worry about that.

Yea im more worried of burnes losing his spot over woodruff, woodruff is a strong hold for me, Burnes needs that 3rd pitch baaaad Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LoGo 412 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Now that the dust has settled a little, 3.1 ip, 3 k, 2 total bases, 0 runs in his last 2 appearances. People have dumped him, and rightly so, but still a ton of long term value here, no? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For my team purposes I can get value with that, especially if he can get some holds from the SP position. However, outside of that he won't have a much value until he starts again...

He is still viewed a starter long-term by the team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have faith in him based on his mental toughness Thanks for sharing this. This is good info. How did you come to know Corbin Burnes so intimately to know his mental make up? I always find it cool hearing stories from people who know athletes personally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LoGo 412 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 This dude is a train wreck, I have no idea why Milwaukee keeps trotting him out there. Another meltdown in Pittsburgh tonight. Nothing more than a deep dynasty stash at this point in the hope that he figures it out and becomes a solid starter. Hard to justify putting him in an active slot right now despite the high K%. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
