With Burnett, Health An Issue
October 11, 2008, 9:40 pmKen Davidoff has a nice piece out that reminds Yankee fans of A.J. Burnett’s injury-riddled past. Burnett definitely posted tantalizing numbers this season, as his talent is truly unquestionable. However, those numbers can often cloud one’s judgment when evaluating a free agent. Obviously, there are other factors that must be considered when signing players and Burnett’s inability to remain healthy will always hamper his value, that is, until he proves otherwise (meaning, consecutive seasons with 200+ IP).
You’ ll hate to see Burnett prove he’s fully capable of doing that in Red Sox uniform.
I think the Sox will make bid heavily for Burnett. The Yanks know this and will act accordingly. It’d frighten any fan to see Beckett, Dice-K, Burnett, and Lester, together.
