Burrows (0-1) was the pitcher of record in Monday's 11-1 loss to the White Sox after surrendering seven runs (six earned) on five hits and three walks across two innings.
EDGE Analysis
Serving as the opener in front of primary pitcher Charlie Barnes, Burrows put the Twins in a 2-0 hole before manager Rocco Baldelli turned the game over to the bullpen. Burrows was lit up for four runs in the first inning and didn't fare much better in the second, letting the first two batters of the frame reach base before serving up a three-run blast to Eloy Jimenez. All told, Burrows needed 64 pitches just to record six outs. The heavy workload means Burrows likely won't be available in relief for at least a couple of days, and the Twins could decide to remove him from the active roster entirely after the poor showing.
