experience with AJ Burnett

[STEVEPONEDAL]

I picked up Burnett in a recent trade. He is 0 and 4 since then with a 10+ ERA. In 17 innings he has given up 5 HRs despite not having any HRs on his card. So I guess these come up in rolls of the hitters card. I play in the Metrodome and have a Tropicana Field US Cell and MM Field in my division.

So is he a good fit in ths setup or trade bait? How have others fared with him?

As always, thanks for the help.

Is overpriced, but I've seen him perform well against me, mostly because I'm usually in Ameriquest.

Hi Steve,
Through the 4 games LHH's are hitting .548 against him and RHH's .255. Definitely getting some bad roles. Your division leader, in the Trop, only has 2 RHH's so Burnett's reverse status will serve you well there. The Cell team has 5 RHH but their average balance is 3L. The MM team..... well at least he doesn't have any BPHR's against righties. See how he does in the midseason games against your division. Or has he faced them already?

Just bad luck so far, I've usually had some decent success with him. If I were you I'd keep him, those homer #'s will drop.

Hey Palmtana,

The Grizz look lie they are headed to the playoffs. No, Burnett hasn't seen my division yet. I might see if I can keep him out of MM if I can.

I thought the dice rolls were ending up on the hitter's cards. I must be patient.

Thanks

Steve

Very much a hitter's park pitcher. On a Kaufmann team I had, he went 1-9 with a 6.42 ERA. I traded him to a Fenway team, and he put up a 3.36 ERA for them.

In Coors:
14 16 0 0 233.1 276 177 165 107 212 25 6.36 1.64

I have him again and I'm not sure why.

or neutral?
