Miami is 3-13, the worst record in the NL. “I think I feel kind of where I thought I was going to feel this morning,” Burger said before Miami's series opener against San Francisco on Monday.

4/11/24 Smash Burger: 5 years after nearly quitting baseball, former Missouri State star Jake Burger becomes Miami Marlins slugger. Smashburgers may become a favorite food for Miami Marlins fans, a meal popularized by an emerging star whose parents talked him out of quitting baseball five years ago. Jake Burger hit a three-run homer on his 28th birthday, a drive off All-Star pitcher Marcus Stroman that propelled the Marlins over the New York Yankees 5-2 on Wednesday night for just their second win this season. Burger leads Miami with three homers and 15 RBIs, reviving a career that was interrupted for nearly four years because of a foot injury and the coronavirus pandemic.

2/20/24 Marlins' Jake Burger has made a new home — and hopes to welcome ex-White Sox teammate Tim Anderson soon. Former White Sox teammates and first-round draft picks Jake Burger and Tim Anderson could be having a reunion soon on the left side of the Marlins infield. A Sox fan favorite at third, and a one-time favorite and rising superstar who crashed and burned in 2023 — along with his team — at shortstop. Burger, whom the Sox dealt to Miami in an unpopular move at last year's trade deadline, would be A-OK with that. “He was a great teammate to me,” Burger said.

11/01/23 White Sox prospect Jake Eder is looking to deliver. In winning over the hearts of the White Sox faithful, left-handed pitching prospect Jake Eder has his work cut out for him. Acquired by a front office who exhausted fans' patience for waiting out prospect development, former Sox executive vice president Ken Williams negotiated Eder's acquisition and saddled the 25-year-old's arrival as a product of a jumbled and now-deposed leadership hierarchy. The hope that the Sox had sold high on a strikeout-prone Jake Burger was challenged by their former first-round pick hitting .303/.355/.505 while helping the Marlins to the playoffs. “I make it a habit to not compare myself to any other player,” Eder said in a recent phone interview.
