1958 Yankee Prospect of the Past: Wally Burnette

"When the A's were shopping for hurling help in 1956, they brought Wally up from Denver. The crafty knuckle-baller gained six wins in 18 contests. Last season he was used mostly in relief.
Wally won 91 while losing 67 in six and a half minor league seasons. His top year was 1953 at Binghamton with 21 wins."
