Garrick Burns  
Relief Pitcher | Fredericton Bandits

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Burns also has a decent changeup. He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He has a very good move to first base and is solid at controlling the running game. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Burns is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Burns has some pop in his swing.

2025 Outlook
The Fredericton Bandits signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Burns like a hot potato if something better comes along.
