A Jumbo Shrimp is a big catch for the Major Leagues! ⚾ We spoke to Peyton Burdick about his jump from Jacksonville to Miami and his experience at spring training with the Marlins.
But Burdick, an outfielder for the Triple-A Jumbo Shrimp, is trying to close the gap and make the leap to the Miami Marlins this summer.
The Miami Marlins drafted Burdick in the third round of the 2019 MLB draft. After signing with the Marlins for a $397,500 bonus out of Wright State, he joined the Low-A Batavia Muckdogs for six games. In his first season with the Jumbo Shrimp, he now awaits that call every minor league player wants to hear.
Just like overcoming big injuries, Burdick must overcome the adversity he faces in the minor league by pushing through the workload.He said the jump from Pensacola in Double-A to Jacksonville in Triple-A made him a better defensive player. According to More Than Baseball’s recent report, only 10% of minor league baseball players will ever make it to MLB.
One of Burdick’s biggest takeaways since arriving at the minor leagues is his body’s growth in the league.
