Coming off a 2012 season in which he was named Brewers Minor League Pitcher of the Year, Burgos allowed one run in 13 innings over three relief stints for Puerto Rico during the 2013 World Baseball Classic and was in Milwaukee's rotation by April 20, beating the Cubs in his Major League debut.
Shoulder trouble cut short Burgos' debut season and led to surgery in 2014, followed by a demotion all the way to High A ball in 2015. But Burgos fought his way back to Triple-A Colorado Springs for the second half of '15 and spent all of '16 there, going 10-10 with a respectable 4.
