There is no obvious choice for the final weekend starter position or who a 4th would be if there is another short term injury. If someone emerges or a new JUCO comes in I agree.

>>“College is great,” he noted. “I love the coaching staff at UConn and everything about it there. But it just came down to wanting to play, wanting to get after it now.”<<

>>UConn thought it had a pretty good chance to land the 6-foot-2, 183-pound right-hander, but things changed when the Pirates weren’t able to sign first-round pick Gunnar Hoglund. The team turned its focus on Burrows and signed him for about $375,000 more than his 11th-round slot value, since any money saved in the top 10 rounds can be used toward later picks.

With a half-million in the bank (plus another $140,000 should he decide to get a college degree), Burrows’ decision was made a lot easier.<<

Burrows made his pro debut today against the Braves.....
— Michael Burrows made his debut as the GCL Pirates (18-20) lost to the Braves, 5-1. Burrows, signed to an above-slot bonus as an 11th round pick, threw two scoreless innings, allowing just a hit and striking out three.
