FACTS/FLUKES: Burke, Paredes, Lorenzen, Andrus, D. Jiménez

Burke thrived as a reliever last season... Brock Burke (LHP, TEX) posted a 1.97 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, 27.4% K%, and 7.3% BB% in 82.1 innings. Burke earned $11 with seven wins and nine holds. After transitioning from a starter to a reliever, are Burke's skills legitimate to repeat in 2023?
