With an estimated net worth of $45 million, A.J. Burnett is a professional baseball player who currently plays with the New York Yankees for the Major Baseball League.
In the past, Burnett has also played for other franchise like Toronto Blue Jays and Florida Marlins. He played with the Marlins from 1999 through 2005. On December 6, 2005, he signed a five-year $55 million worth of contract with Toronto Blue Jays. The management of Blue Jays had been extra careful in offering Burnett a five-year deal because he is known to be prone to injuries.

Before the 2012 season has started, Yankees has announced their intentions of trading Burnett to Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for Diego Moreno and Exicardo Cayones. For that deal, Yankees agreed to pay $20 million out of $33 million that remains on Burnett’s contract.
