Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Corbin Burnes is expected to start the team's first spring training game on Friday against the Colorado Rockies. The right-hander is slated to pitch just one inning of work. Burnes was one of the top free agents in the open market and signed a massive six-year $210 million contract with the Diamondbacks earlier in the offseason. Last season in Baltimore, Burnes posted a 2.92 ERA and a 1.10 WHIP across 194 1/3 innings. He tallied strikeouts at a modest 23.1 percent rate but showed strong command with a 6.7 percent walk rate. The right-hander also generated an elite 31.6 percent hard-hit rate and 48.8 percent ground-ball rate, which were both well above the average marks. Given his high workload, fantasy managers should view Burnes as a high-floor SP1 in all formats.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Corbin Burnes (shoulder) threw on flat ground on Monday before the team's series opener at Chase Field against the visiting New York Mets. Burnes then spoke with trainer Ryan DiPanfilo and pitching coach Brian Kaplan, which ended with a fist bump. The D-backs kept the 30-year-old veteran from making his scheduled start on Monday against the Met after he worked his way through right-shoulder fatigue in his last two outings. It sounds as though his throwing session went well on Monday, though, and the team remains optimistic that he won't need to go on the injured list. The four-time All-Star only allowed four runs (two earned) with eight walks and 11 K's in 11 1/3 innings while being less than 100% in his last two starts against the Rays and Mets. Overall, he has a 3.58 ERA and 1.38 WHIP with 28 K's in 32 2/3 innings over his first six starts. Burnes is a must-start in fantasy when he's on the mound. UPDATE: Manager Torey Lovullo said that Burnes is still on track to make his next start.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Corbin Burnes (shoulder) is expected to miss his next scheduled start due to right-shoulder inflammation. The 30-year-old had recently expressed feeling some shoulder fatigue to manager Torey Lovullo, and the team decided to have him skip a start, however, they remain hopeful that the 4x All-Star will not require an injured list stint. Burnes has been solid this season, but has not performed like the ace we've grown accustomed to, pitching to a 3.58 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, and a 7.9 percent K-BB% over six starts (32 2/3 IP). Hopefully the extra rest will get him back to form with the Diamondbacks having postseason aspirations.--Jarod Rupp - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Corbin Burnes pitched well in a 7-4 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays in 10 innings on Thursday. Burnes allowed three runs (one earned) over 5 1/3 innings of work while striking out eight and walking three. He picked up 10 swinging strikes in the start but could not turn that into a win for his team. Burnes has now made five starts for Arizona this season, posting a 0-1 record, 4.05 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, and 25 strikeouts over 26 2/3 innings of work. He will look for his first win of the season in his next start, which is scheduled for Wednesday against the New York Mets.--Matt T - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Corbin Burnes allowed four runs on seven hits in his team's 5-4 loss to the Washington Nationals on Sunday. Burnes walked four, struck out three, and hit two batters in his five innings of work. The former fourth-round pick wasn't at his best over the weekend, allowing plenty of loud contact to Washington -- with the Nats' bats registering six hard-hit balls of 99 MPH or greater. He's been unsteady to start 2025, putting together a 5.79 ERA and 1.93 WHIP in his first 9.1 innings. The 30-year-old's walking more batters than usual (14.9%) thus far, but he was better his last time out against the Yankees, albeit in four innings. Burnes will look to rebound in his next start, which is tentatively lined up next weekend against his former team, the Milwaukee Brewers.--Alex Ciulla
