Enrique Burgos
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching If you're going in to face Burgos, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Burgos, and that's saying a lot. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. He changes speeds well enough to keep righthanders from teeing off on him.
Defense & Hitting Burgos is nothing special in the field. Basestealers have succeeded against Burgos because his pickoff move is weak for a lefthander. Burgos is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Burgos has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Burgos as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2010 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Burgos.
