When you take a step back and just look at Burnett's 2009 numbers, you'll see that they really weren't anything overly exciting, 13-4.04-0-195-1.40. He is far too inconsistent to post elite numbers, and even when he is dominant, he walks too many batters. I don't think his 2010 numbers are much better than his 2009 stats. 15-0-4.00-1.35-190 in 205 IP

Positives / Upside	When Burnett is on, he is one of the most dominant pitchers in the game. If he can keep it all together over the course of an entire season, he has the potential to be an elite option, especially pitching in the Bronx where wins will be aplenty. 18-0-3.90-1.30-200 in 210 IP
Negatives / Downside	When Burnett is off, he can be downright awful. He is too inconsistent to be relied on as anything more than a number two fantasy starter and has an extensive injury history. Yes, he has stayed healthy the past two seasons, but it seems like it is only a matter of time before injury strikes again. 13-0-4.20-1.38-155 in 170 IP
Recommendation	Only at a discount
Draft Position	112
