2023 Fantasy Outlook
After an uninspiring 2019 debut as a starter, Burke made a successful transition to relief last year. His 82.1 innings were most among relief pitchers, spanning 52 appearances with 34 in a multi-inning capacity. The southpaw added 3 miles per hour, on average, on all four of his pitches, with his 95 mph fastball responsible for 66 of his 90 strikeouts. His 1.97 ERA was more than a full run lower than his 3.29 FIP and 3.33 SIERA, which forecasts regression in that category. However, Burke still managed a solid 1.06 WHIP with seven wins and nine holds, when combined with his strikeout total, is valuable in AL-only and deeper mixed formats. Don't expect Burke to enter the Rangers' mix for saves, but he should have plenty of chances for wins and holds pitching in middle relief. Read Past Outlooks

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
2019
After receiving six starts down the stretch as a 22-year-old in 2019, Burke was expected to compete for a spot in the Rangers' 2020 rotation but with his likely destination being Triple-A Nashville, where he only worked eight innings prior to his promotion to the major leagues. In January, Burke felt soreness in the same shoulder that bothered him at the end of the 2019 campaign, requiring left shoulder debridement surgery on his labrum in late February. With an estimated 12-month recovery, Burke's availability for the beginning of spring training is in question, virtually assuring he'll start the campaign in the minors. The southpaw was already on a back-of-the-rotation, innings-eater career trajectory, and now he has the added burden of recovering from shoulder surgery. The Rangers' new venue is seemingly a good place to pitch, but chances are it'll be a while before Burke experiences it first-hand.
