Less than a minute into a phone interview about his offseason, White Sox starting pitcher Sean Burke seemed to be resuming a conversation from last September, mulling over pitch shapes and plans for returning them to prior glory.
The towering 26-year-old right-hander once again spent the bulk of his offseason in Nashville, where fellow Bledsoe clients like Colson Montgomery and Caleb Bonemer train at the agency’s complex, and other Sox players like Jonathan Cannon, Tim Elko and Korey Lee also spent their winters. Burke was also in Chicago, layered up and in attendance for Bears’ divisional round playoff loss to the Rams last weekend, and claims to have an incredible 50-yard line angled iPhone video of Caleb Williams’ miraculous last-minute touchdown pass. But he’s also headed out to Arizona next week, both ducking a cold snap and eager to show off what the bulk of his winter has been centered around.
