Fans seven in win Burnes (2-0) was charged with one unearned run on three hits over six innings in a win over Cleveland on Friday. He struck out seven and issued two walks. Impact After working mostly in a piggyback role early on, Burnes has shined since stepping into the starting rotation. He's been especially good over his last two starts, giving up six hits and zero earned runs while posting a 17:3 K:BB over 12 innings. The 25-year-old right-hander is throwing heat and the cutter has helped him neutralize lefty hitters. With that, Burnes seems to be blossoming into a legitimate frontline starter and will look to keep it going next weekend at home against the Cubs.
