Burgos took the loss against the Padres on Friday, allowing a run on one hit and two walks with a strikeout in his only inning. |
Burgos has struggled to get major league hitters out, posting a 6.00 ERA and 1.67 WHIP in six innings. He was posting decent numbers in a small sample at Double-A at the start of the year and may need some more exposure at the level before sticking with the D-Backs permanently. |

Burgos' second appearance for the D-Backs didn't go well Friday in a loss to the Dodgers. He allowed two runs on two hits and two walks in one inning of work, while striking out two. |
Burgos has shown strike out potential, but shaky command in the minors and the Dodgers took advantage. The 24-year-old is taking injured teammate Archie Bradley's spot on the roster and will likely head back down to Double-A when Bradley is ready to return. In the meantime, he will work some mop up duty to gain experience, but is not likely to offer a lot of fantasy value outside of a few strike outs. |

Burgos was recalled from Double-A Mobile on Wednesday, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports. |
Burgos will replace Archie Bradley (face) on the Diamondbacks' 25-man roster. He hasn't started a game since 2011, so he'll provide another arm out of the club's bullpen after pitching 6.2 scoreless innings at Double-A Mobile to begin 2015. |
