There were three possible scenarios that Brewers right-hander Corbin Burnes was facing before Spring Training started. He could have been sent back to the Minors to work out any lingering effects of his 2019 season. He could have made the roster as a reliever, a role that he succeeded in during the 2018 season. There was also a chance that he worked his way back into the Milwaukee Brewers rotation.
After his effort on Monday night, Burnes could find himself in a real battle for the final spot in the rotation.
