02.05.18 Arkansas Recruit. Burton is a pure athlete. In the outfield, at the plate, one the base paths, and most notably on the mound. He showed his speed scoring from first on an errant throw, and his power when he just about left the yard in left field. With the impressive physical attributes, it will be interesting to see what is to come. It didn’t take long for Burton to pop 93 MPH with his fastball, that sat in the 90-92 range. In his second inning of work, he started to spin the breaking ball at 80 mph.

06.26.17 - 6-foot, 170-pound, quick twitch frame. Burton works from a high-¾ slot with a quick, electric arm stroke with effort in his delivery. His fastball was 91-93 mph in the bullpen and explodes out of his hand, with a 77-78 mph sharp slider.
