2024 Fantasy Outlook
The right-hander's 2023 got off to an inauspicious start, with an ugly arbitration battle publicly straining the relationship between Burnes and the Brewers. Always the consummate professional, Burnes put together another highly successful campaign despite some hiccups, leading qualified National League starters in WHIP while reaching 200 strikeouts for the third consecutive season. His swing-and-miss dominance took a hit as Burnes averaged just over a strikeout per inning (25.5 K%), coinciding with a dip in fastball velocity. His sinking fastball let him down and the 10 wins were a disappointment, but Burnes has four above-average pitches to lean on and still projects as a fantasy ace after being traded to the Orioles in February. If the strikeouts tick back up, Burnes could find himself in the Cy Young discussion once again. Read Past Outlooks
Receives qualifying offer
Baltimore offered Burnes a $21.05 million qualifying offer Monday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Orioles will receive draft pick compensation if Burnes, who will likely decline the qualifying offer, signs with another team. Burnes was traded to Baltimore in February after spending the previous seven years in the Brewers' organization. He finished the 2024 regular season with a 15-9 record over 32 starts with a 2.92 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 181:48 K:BB across 194.1 innings.

Burnes followed up his NL Cy Young season in impressive fashion. While he didn't bring home the hardware in the National League again, the right-hander was right up there among the best pitchers in the game no matter how you slice it. At 27 years old, Burnes fanned 243 batters -- second in baseball behind only Gerrit Cole -- and surpassed 200 innings for the first time, adding 35 frames to his 2021 total. There is little to nitpick in the underlying numbers, though Burnes hit some bumps in the road in the second half, with his ERA finishing at 3.97 after the All-Star break. A corresponding dip in his strikeout rate after the break (to 27.9 percent) perhaps gives reason for pause heading into 2023, but the overall body of work was stellar. Burnes should still be treated as one of MLB's elite aces, even if he won't get to pick on the NL Central quite as much with the balanced schedule.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Qualifying offer coming
The Orioles are expected to extend Burnes a $21.05 million qualifying offer, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Burnes will not accept the offer, but extending it will allow the Orioles to recoup a draft pick should the right-hander sign elsewhere in free agency. The 30-year-old held a 2.92 ERA over 32 regular-season starts for Baltimore, although he saw his strikeout rate tumble again to 23.1 percent, which was the lowest since his rookie season.
