Tigers prospect Beau Burrows fighting through command issues at Erie

ERIE, Pa. -- Erie Seawolves manager Andrew Graham has seen Detroit Tigers pitching prospect Beau Burrows at his most dominant.

He's also seen him struggle.

But he's also seen plenty of games like Wednesday night, when Burrows has struggled with his command but still posted satisfying results. In Wednesday's case, that meant four walks and a hit batter (bad) but five scoreless innings (good) and an 18-1 win (even better).

"I had good stuff today. I've just got to stay within myself and make the right pitches," Burrows said afterward.

Graham has special insight into Burrows' progress because he managed Class A (Advanced) Lakeland in 2017 before moving up to Class AA Erie.
