EDGE Analysis
Burnett will earn $1.25 million if he makes it to the majors in 2017. The Phillies have just two lefties on their 40-man roster, so Burnett gives them more depth in that area. He has an opt out in in his contract on March 26 if he does not earn a roster spot with the Phillies this spring.
