It's an honor the Pirates expected to bestow upon Burnett last spring after he came over in a trade with the New York Yankees, but Burnett fractured his orbital bone while trying to bunt during his first spring training workout and missed the first month of the season. The 36-year-old made up for lost time, going 16-10 with a 3.51 ERA in 31 starts.
