Is Mike Burrows Still Worth Targeting on the Waiver Wire in Deeper Leagues?
Houston Astros starting pitcher Mike Burrows had a rough outing in his most recent appearance on Thursday against the Seattle Mariners, allowing eight hits and seven earned runs across 5 2/3 innings of work. The 26-year-old's overall line in his first season in Houston isn't pretty either, as he's recorded a 2-5 record with a 5.72 ERA, 1.53 WHIP, and 46 strikeouts across 50 1/3 innings (nine starts). However, Burrows looked like he might be figuring some things out before his most recent hiccup. Across three starts leading into the Seattle game, Burrows allowed just five earned runs while striking out 17 across 18 innings. The right-hander's 3.92 xERA suggests he has run into some bad luck so far this season after he recorded a 3.94 ERA and 1.24 WHIP across 96 1/3 innings with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2025. In deeper leagues, Burrows could have buy-low appeal on the waiver wire ahead of his next scheduled start on Wednesday in Minnesota against the Twins.
