Hitters tend to pull the ball more than go the other way, and about 2/3rds of MLB batters are right-handed. Which is why SS's tend to have more chances than 2B, and 3B get more balls hit to them than 1B. -
“I was shocked,” Burnes said. “Being this late in the spring with some of the moves the Brewers had made to better the offense and get some more depth ... it was definitely shock.” Burnes then called his agent, Scott Boras, who also represents Hoskins. “There was shock when I called my agent,” Burnes said. “He was like, ‘Seriously? It kind of goes counterproductive to some of the comments that were said with the Hoskins signing.’ It definitely caught everyone off-guard.” -

If Burnes stays healthy the whole year and is a Cy Young contender, he'll be the top free agent pitcher and maybe player too (I haven't really looked at what position players are free agents). I'm sure he's looking at $40 mill/year+ for 7 years or more. Probably trying to top $300 million. That's not the range the O's, a mid market team can play in. Too dangerous to lock up such a large percentage of payroll in 1 pitcher given how often pitcher injuries happen and how they can influence future performance. -
I just went by his bref page that said Burnes agent was CAA sports. Could be wrong, I didnt look for any other sources. Agents: CAA Sports -

He had three seasons where he was clearly above average: 2013, 2015, 2016. '13 he was one of the better players in baseball. He had a bunch of seasons where he wasn't particularly productive and/or didn't play a lot. And he had about four years where he played over 100 games and was clearly below replacement. I don't know if mediocre is the right word. He had wild variations in his level of performance. -
I'm confident they aren't preaching chasing balls or swinging at pitchers pitches, both things our guys are doing.

I saw that. Every once and awhile he lets out some frustration. Has high expectations for this group.
