2024 Fantasy Outlook
The right-hander's 2023 got off to an inauspicious start, with an ugly arbitration battle publicly straining the relationship between Burnes and the Brewers. Always the consummate professional, Burnes put together another highly successful campaign despite some hiccups, leading qualified National League starters in WHIP while reaching 200 strikeouts for the third consecutive season. His swing-and-miss dominance took a hit as Burnes averaged just over a strikeout per inning (25.5 K%), coinciding with a dip in fastball velocity. His sinking fastball let him down and the 10 wins were a disappointment, but Burnes has four above-average pitches to lean on and still projects as a fantasy ace after being traded to the Orioles in February. If the strikeouts tick back up, Burnes could find himself in the Cy Young discussion once again. Read Past Outlooks
Dominates Tigers in win
Burnes (14-8) got the win Saturday against the Tigers. He allowed two hits and a walk with seven strikeouts in seven scoreless innings.
ANALYSIS
Burnes was nearly unhittable Saturday as he got through seven innings with ease, at one point retiring 12 straight hitters. He has been a model of durability and consistency for the Orioles this season, as he's made 30 starts and has thrown the fifth most innings in MLB with 182.1. The 29-year-old will carry a 3.06 ERA into his next start, which is scheduled against the Tigers once again.

2017
Burnes followed up his NL Cy Young season in impressive fashion. While he didn't bring home the hardware in the National League again, the right-hander was right up there among the best pitchers in the game no matter how you slice it. At 27 years old, Burnes fanned 243 batters -- second in baseball behind only Gerrit Cole -- and surpassed 200 innings for the first time, adding 35 frames to his 2021 total. There is little to nitpick in the underlying numbers, though Burnes hit some bumps in the road in the second half, with his ERA finishing at 3.97 after the All-Star break. A corresponding dip in his strikeout rate after the break (to 27.9 percent) perhaps gives reason for pause heading into 2023, but the overall body of work was stellar. Burnes should still be treated as one of MLB's elite aces, even if he won't get to pick on the NL Central quite as much with the balanced schedule.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Seeking eight-year deal
According to Jeff Passan of ESPN.com, Burnes is expected to seek an eight-year deal this offseason.
ANALYSIS
Passan believes the right-hander will attempt to get the third-largest deal in MLB history for a pitcher, trailing only Gerrit Cole's and Yoshinobu Yamamoto's $325-plus million contracts. After being traded from the Brewers to the Orioles over the winter, Burnes has continued his strong track record with a 3.28 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 146:40 K:BB across 159.1 innings. The 29-year-old has hit a bit of a wall in August, as he's given up 20 earned runs in 20.2 frames covering four starts.
