Sean Burke Improves Durability Over The Offseason
3 hours agoAccording to Scott Merkin, Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Sean Burke emphasized durability during his offseason training. The 25-year-old has battled numerous arm injuries over the past two seasons. However, he has been quite productive when he has been on the mound. Across his first 19 innings in the majors this past season, Burke posted a stellar 1.42 ERA with a 1.00 WHIP. He struck out 22 batters and served up just seven free passes. In 64 1/3 innings with Triple-A Charlotte, Burke posted a 4.62 ERA with a 1.29 WHIP. During the 2023 season, he was limited to just 36 2/3 innings of work. Seeing that the Maryland product has emphasized durability in his training is a positive sign. Fantasy managers should expect Burke to compete for a spot in the starting rotation alongside Bryse Wilson and Ky Bush during spring training.
