Promising RHP from the Yankees organization.
From his Wiki page:
The Yankees selected Burawa in the 12th round of the 2010 Major League Baseball Draft and signed him for a bonus of $300,000. During spring training in 2012, Burawa suffered an injury to his oblique muscle, which cost him much of the season. 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, and he pitched for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders of the Class AAA International League.
After the 2014 season, the Yankees added Burawa to their 40-man roster. 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. He made his major league debut that night, allowing four runs on three hits in 2⁄3 of an inning, and was optioned to the minor leagues after the game. Burawa was designated for assignment on August 5. The Atlanta Braves claimed Burawa off of waivers.
From Newsday:
The righthanded pitcher appeared in one game for the Yankees against the Tigers on June 21. Facing the heart of the Detroit order to start the sixth inning, he allowed four runs and three hits in two-thirds of an inning, including a three-run home run by J.D. Martinez.
