Burnett picks up win a day later: Blue Jays SP A.J. Burnett had to wait a few more hours than he expected, but the right-hander picked up his 11th victory Thursday when Toronto completed a 5-1 victory over the Orioles. The original game was halted on Wednesday in the top of the sixth because of weather issues. Burnett allowed one run on six hits over five innings with seven strikeouts and no walks. (Updated 07/24/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Burnett has now allowed two or fewer runs in three straight outings and is 3-1 in his last four starts. The Jays will be happy he is increasing his trade value lately, while his owners will be glad he is starting to turn things around after struggling in June. He's on a roll right now, which is a good timing, as Burnett is a two-start pitcher in Fantasy Week 18 (July 28-Aug. 3). He'll face Tampa Bay on Monday and then go against the Rangers in Texas to end the week. He's a must-start pitcher over that frame. (Updated 07/24/2008).
