AJ Burnett

[AI8818]

Does anyone have this guy? Well, I have him. He sucks, face it. He did horrible in his game today. It was pathetic. He gave up 12 hits, 8 runs, 2 walks in 4.1 innings. And I might add how he got the loss. Im dropping this guy, anyone with me?

i like to call him TJ Burnett... Tommy John Burnett...
he won't be the same for a while but i wouldnt rule out a nice little comeback late in the season...

Well he was a gamble to begin with so if you didn't have the roster space to bench him initially you probably shouldn't have picked him up. I have him but he'll just stay on the bench and I'll see how it plays out.

Talk about overreacting...

After checking the box score for Burnett's second game back in the major since Tommy John surgery, this A1818181818 dude has already decided that AJ Burnett is a crappy pitcher, end of story. Chill man...

I posted this in the other thread, but I figure it makes a good point, so here it is again: I am never big on a guy coming off a big injury, especially surgery, and super especially a pitcher. I alwways think that just because they are back from the DL, that doesnt mean that they are back to their old self. It always seems to take a while, look at other Tommy John examples...

There's an AJ post like 4 posts below this one.....

Kerry Wood in 2000 (Following TJ surgery): 4.80 ERA 1.45 WHIP

I'd hardly say he sucks. Nor will Burnett in 2005. It's your mistake if you thought he would carry your team.
