The Tigers optioned Burrows to their alternate training site Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Detroit made the transaction after Burrows had served as the 29th man for its doubleheader Thursday in St. Louis. Burrows made his fifth appearance of the season out of the bullpen in Game 1 of the twin bill, giving up a run on five hits while recording four outs.

Burrows will serve as the 29th man for Thursday's doubleheader in St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

After the Tigers got tagged for 19 runs and used five pitchers (plus a position player) against the Brewers on Wednesday, they could definitely use a fresh arm in Burrows for this twin bill. He has logged three straight scoreless appearances after giving up three earned runs in his first appearance of the year.

Burrows was sent to Detroit's alternate training site after Saturday's doubleheader against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Burrows served as the 29th man for the twin bill but didn't appear in either contest. He has allowed three runs on three hits with two strikeouts and one walk over 5.1 innings this season.

Burrows was named the 29th man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Burrows will provide a fresh arm in the bullpen, but he'll likely return to the team's alternate training site following Saturday's twin bill. The right-hander allowed three runs over 5.1 innings during three relief appearances earlier this season.

Burrows was optioned to the alternate training site after Tuesday's loss to the White Sox, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 23-year-old was recalled by the Tigers last week and fired three scoreless innings during his time with the team. Burrows has allowed three runs over 5.1 innings this season and could rejoin the big-league club when it needs some bullpen depth.

Burrows was recalled by the Tigers on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Burrows made one appearance for the Tigers early in the season, and it wasn't a good one, as he allowed three runs in 2.1 innings of work against the Royals. That's his lone big-league outing thus far, and he's yet to have success at the Triple-A level, either, struggling to a 5.51 ERA in 15 starts for Toledo last season.

Burrows was optioned to the Tigers' alternate training site after Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

The 23-year-old made the Opening Day roster but struggled in his lone appearance, giving up three runes on three hits with one walk and zero strikeouts over 2.1 innings. Burrows should remain a relief option later in the season if Detroit needs additional bullpen arms.

Burrows will open the year in the Tigers' bullpen.

EDGE Analysis

While the 23-year-old righty was already on the 40-man roster, this move will allow him to make his big-league debut in 2020. He has worked exclusively as a starter in the minors, but lacks the command and stuff to have success in that role in the majors. However, his low-90s fastball could sit in the mid-90s in shorter stints. He lacks a hammer offspeed pitch, so Burrows will likely be limited to mid-leverage work as a rookie.

Burrows will be a part of the Tigers' 60-man player pool this season.

EDGE Analysis

Burrows was optioned to Triple-A Toledo back in March, but with MLB rosters expanded, the 23-year-old will now get a shot in the majors. He may simply be around for depth, however, and is not a lock to earn significant playing time this season.

The Tigers optioned Burrows to Triple-A Toledo on March 6.

EDGE Analysis

Burrows wasn't under consideration for a back-end spot in the Detroit rotation, making him an easy early cut as the Tigers trimmed down their camp roster. After posting a 5.51 ERA and 1.54 WHIP over 15 starts at Toledo in 2019, Burrows will need to find more success in the International League before the big club gives him a look.
