Overall: Burgos was originally signed by the St. Louis Cardinals in 2017 for $300,000, which was the max they were allowed to give out since they were over their bonus pool the previous season. He was traded to the Marlins in 2020 for OF Austin Dean. The Marlins have seen plenty of Burgos as the two teams share a spring training complex. Burgos tore up the DSL in 2019, hitting .382/.481/.725, and displays excellent bat-to-ball skills and a good eye at the plate. He's a subpar defender in the OF corners, and although I haven't personally seen him, some sources I've talked with see him as a future part-time player without the implementation of the DH. He should hit though, and I want to see how that power translates stateside after swatting nine homers in 36 DSL games. He ended 2019 with an underwhelming GCL stint, but I'm not holding that against him.
