Burleson has always had a nice swing. It’s just that he never met a strike he didn’t like. His improvement is because he’s become more selective. Simple as that. Plate discipline. Now he seems to have some.
Burly minor league carrer .300 avg 850 OPS. So I’m guessing a certain poster isn’t the only person aware of his offensive potential. Only problem was no one seemed to be aware of how truly horrid his defense was. I give him a lot of credit. He’s made major improvement the last year plus. I’m sure it didn’t come thru osmosis. And yes, Dom, I think he’s ready for the 3 hole.
