    Sean Burke gave up four runs while working 5 1/3 innings of relief against the Athletics on Friday.
    Burke, 28, pitched after opener Tyler Gilbert worked a scoreless inning. The right-hander pitched well until the fifth inning, but he gave up a solo homer to Jacob Wilson and three more runs charged to him after departing an inning later. Burke has not been all that much more effective since moving to the bulk role, and he isn’t a recommended option whatsoever whenever he pitches in this role again.
  • LAA Starting Pitcher #35
    Ian Anderson surrendered five runs — four earned — while getting three outs to take a loss in relief Wednesday against the Cardinals.
    Pretty much everyone in the Angels pen besides Anderson was burnt out coming into this one — and even Anderson, who threw 11 pitches Tuesday, was going back-to-back days — but the team decided against calling up anyone. Anderson took over with a 5-3 lead in the seventh and blew the lead then. Even so, he was left in with the score tied to open the eighth. All three batters then reached against him, two of them while trying to sac bunt. Brock Burke, working for the third time in four days, took over and allowed the three runners to score before giving up four runs of his own. The Angels then used Reid Detmers, who has never been a reliever before and threw 40 pitches Monday, to finish the game off. It’s really pretty disgusting that the Angels didn’t protect their guys by bringing up a fresh arm, but they hoped to get away with it in advance of having Thursday off.

    Angels claimed LHP Brock Burke off waivers from the Rangers.
    The Angels picked up both Burke and former St. Louis reliever Nick Robertson off waivers Tuesday. Burke provides some left-handed depth in the bullpen, but he’s been awful in his limited sample in the majors this year with a 9.22 ERA and 2.20 WHIP.
  • TEX Relief Pitcher #46
    Rangers designated LHP Brock Burke for assignment.
    Burke, 28, has struggled to a 9.22 ERA and 2.20 WHIP over 13 2/3 innings so far. He’s not long removed from being a strong option out of the bullpen, so another team could show interest in the southpaw on the waiver wire.

    Rangers recalled LHP Brock Burke from Triple-A Round Rock.
    Burke is back to take the roster spot of Jacob Latz with Latz now on the injured list with forearm tightness. Burke was once among the better relievers on the Texas roster, but he’s struggled with injuries and had just a 7.56 ERA in nine appearances before being demoted at the end of June.

    Rangers optioned LHP Brock Burke to Triple-A Round Rock.
    The move is hardly a stunner, but it’s still kind of remarkable; it’s the first time since Burke debuted on Aug. 20, 2019 that he’s been optioned to the minors. Burke missed two months this season with a self-inflicted break of his non-pitching hand. He pitched well in his first two appearances after returning earlier this month, but he walked three of five batters on Tuesday and gave up two runs in an inning Thursday, leaving him with a 7.56 ERA in nine appearances overall.
