Corbin Burnes Goes On Paternity List
5 months agoThe Baltimore Orioles placed right-hander Corbin Burnes on the paternity list on Friday and recalled left-hander Matt Krook from Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move. Burnes will most likely be away for the rest of the weekend series against the Texas Rangers but should be back to make his next turn in the starting rotation next week against the Seattle Mariners. The 29-year-old has been as advertised in his first year in Baltimore, going 9-3 with a 2.28 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with 99 strikeouts in 106 2/3 innings over his first 17 starts this year. He picked up his ninth win of the campaign on Thursday in the series opener versus the visiting Rangers by giving up just one earned run on nine hits (one homer) while walking none and fanning five in seven innings. Burnes will be a must-start when he returns to the team next week against the first-place M's.
