2005

You can't hold it against Burke that the reason he was on the team as its third catcher was that any team carrying the occasionally healthy Sandy Alomar and an irregular like Ben Davis probably needs a third catcher. His future on the roster was tied to Alomar's; when Alomar went to Texas and Williams picked up A.J. Pierzynski, Burke's outrighting off the roster came within a day. PECOTA is suspicious of an aging catcher whose primary skill is hitting for average, and while that .333 number looked pretty on the left-field scoreboard in September, Burke is not a great bet to resurface.
