Damaso Burke  
First Baseman | Vancouver Orcas

Hitting
The Vancouver Orcas do tend to sit Burke when the opposing team throws a lefty. It's no secret he can't touch the left-handed breaking ball. You can expect Damaso Burke to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is.

Baserunning & Defense
He might not deliver for you at the plate, but Burke can certainly deliver in the field. He is an exceptional fielder. His arm is accurate enough. Burke has below-average speed and is a poor baserunner.

2025 Outlook
AA isn't the right place for Burke. Expect the Vancouver Orcas to send him down for some minor retooling.
