Burnett can't take care of Phillies: With a chance to pitch the Yankees to their first World Series championship in nine years, SP A.J. Burnett was a bust in Game 5 on Monday night in Philadelphia. He allowed six runs on four hits and four walks in two innings, striking out two in the loss. "You just feel like you let a bunch of guys down," Burnett said. "It's the worst feeling in the world to have the chance to do something special and fail like that."

Fantasy Analysis

Burnett was dominant in Game 2, allowing just one run in seven innings, but the same inconsistency that has plagued him throughout his career plagued him here. He struggled with a 4.04 ERA and 1.40 WHIP in his first season with the Yankees, but he still won 13 games and struck out right at a batter per inning, proving he still has plenty to offer for Fantasy purposes. He might not be an ace, but he's worth drafting as a No. 3 SP in Fantasy, especially since he has the Yankees backing him.
(Updated 11/03/2009).

Burnett lasted two-plus innings Monday and gave up six runs and four hits in an 8-6 loss to the Phillies in Game 5 of the World Series. (Updated 11/03/2009)

Advice

Burnett had won his previous three starts on three days' rest, but was dismal Monday. He will serve as a reliever for the remainder of the World Series.
