Dan Burkhalter  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
Burkhalter is nothing special in the field. Burkhalter doesn't make much of an attempt to combat the running game. Basestealers ran at will last year. Burkhalter is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Burkhalter has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Burkhalter as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Burkhalter flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Burkhalter.
