2025 in review
Burgos is from Santiago, Dominican Republic. He was originally signed by the Seattle Mariners in 2018. According to a quick google search he was not officially ranked as a prospect for the 2024 season. According to James’ post draft rankings “Burgos is 21st Juan Burgos – RHP (BA Not Ranked, MLB 25, FG 31)” https://www.azsnakepit.com/2025/8/3/24480011/az-snake-pit-updated-top-30-prospects-2025
Burgos’ MLB debut came on July 1st against the Royals for Seattle. He gave up a run in 2 innings pitched. He had a couple of scoreless outings against the Yankees and the Tigers. He actually got Aaron Judge to strike out looking in the appearance against the Yankees. His fourth and final game for the Mariners came against the Astros. He gave up 2 runs on 4 hits in 2 innings. He was optioned to the Tacoma Rainiers the next day.
At the trade deadline, he was dealt along with Hunter Cranton and Tyler Locklear for Eugenio Suarez. His first game for the Dbacks came on August 9th against the Rockies. He had a blown save recorded in that game after walking his first batter and then giving up a 2 run single to Ezequiel Tovar. All told in the month of August, he threw 6 innings in 8 appearances. He gave up 5 runs, 2 HRs and 9 hits in total. He walked5 and struck out 5. He did manage to record 3 holds, though. He had 2 appearances against the Texas Rangers, including the Zac Gallen vs Merrill Kelly game.
On September 2nd, the Dbacks placed Burgos on the 15 day IL due to a right forearm contusion. On the 19th, they sent Burgos to Reno on a rehab assignment. He does not appear to have gone into any winter leagues. Fangraphs has his 2025 pitch selection as FC:33% SI:32% SL:26% CU:6%
This was writtten over on Lookout Landind in January 2024, not necessarily relevant, but this is what they had to say about Burgos after the 2023 season:
Juan Burgos, RHP
Age: 24 / B/T: R/R / Signed: 2019 / Final level in 2023: A / MLB ETA: 2026
Burgos has had to fight through a few injury issues and the general hellscapery of being a young international prospect coming up during the pandemic years. He can get his fastball up to 96 with tail that causes hitters to poke after it and hit it on the ground, and pairs that with a breaking ball that utterly bamboozles A-level hitters thanks to some frisbee-like movement. He halved his walk rate in a repeat of Modesto and earned a spot towards the back end of the championship Nuts’ bullpen in 2023.
