Career

Burawa attended Rocky Point High School in Rocky Point, New York.[1] As Burawa did not receive any scholarship offers from a NCAA Division I schools, so he enrolled at Suffolk Community College. After his freshman year, he transferred to St. John's University. After redshirting his sophomore year, Burawa played for the St. John's Red Storm baseball team in the Big East Conference. He also played collegiate summer baseball for the Madison Mallards in the Northwoods League.[2]

The Yankees selected Burawa in the 12th round of the 2010 Major League Baseball Draft and signed him for a bonus of $300,000.[2] During spring training in 2012, Burawa suffered an injury to his oblique muscle, which cost him much of the season.[1] In 2013, he pitched for the Trenton Thunder of the Class AA Eastern League.[3] He pitched to a 6–3 win–loss record and a 2.59 earned run average (ERA) in 66 innings pitched.[4] The Yankees invited Burawa to spring training in 2014,[1] and he pitched for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders of the Class AAA International League.[4]

After the 2014 season, the Yankees added Burawa to their 40-man roster.[5] Burawa began the 2015 season with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. After pitching to a 1.75 ERA in 26 appearances, the Yankees promoted him to the major leagues on June 21.[6] He made his major league debut that night, allowing four runs on three hits in ​23 of an inning, and was optioned to the minor leagues after the game.[7] Burawa was designated for assignment on August 5.[8] The Atlanta Braves claimed Burawa off of waivers,[9] and assigned him to the Gwinnett Braves of the International League.[10] He was called up on September 1, when rosters expanded.[11] He appered in 12 games for the Braves.[12]
