Burnes is a good looking right-handed pitching prospect. He uses a simple, easy delivery. He gets balanced at the top, separates well, creating a higher ¾ arm swing. The simple movements of his delivery allow him to be in line as he works down the mound. The fastball had some late arm side sink and sat (76-77 MPH). Burnes also showed a sweepy breaking ball and good action on a changeup.
James Burnes: RHP/3B, (2025) Boston College, MA. 5-foot-11, 162-pound.
