The Reds of Cincinnati hope to have an overview of a future AS when they send their best hopes of pitching to the mound against one of the best alignments in baseball.
Chase Burns, the overall choice n ° 2 of the draft major league in 2024 last July, was promoted to face the New York Yankees in the second match of the three game series Tuesday evening in Cincinnati.
Wake Forest’s right -hander of 22 years will face the team he applauded when he was young.
“It is a historic team that goes against a large programming,” said Burns. “So, one of my favorite teams growing up. I love Derek throw away. So, to be able to go against them, it’s great.”
Burns only needed 13 minor league departures this season – her only in professional baseball – to go up to the majors. In these 13 departures covering the class A Dayton, Double-A Chattanooga and Triple-A Louisville, Chase granted only 13 points deserved in 66 sleeves, compiling a record of 7-3 with an MPM of 1.77.
The need for burns in the rotation of Cincinnati is obvious. Hunter Greene (groin) is still far from coming back (planned for an enclosure on July 2 in Boston). Wade Miley is breastfeeding a flexor stretched in his left arm and Rhett Lowder is in the distance with an oblique injury.
The promotion of Burns coincided with the designation of Monday for assignment to Jeimer Candelario, a decision which means that the Reds are about to hang on for the rest of his $ 45 million contract until 2026. Candelario struck only 013 in 22 games for the Reds this season before going to the Lumbar Spine Stage.
“(He has) quite special things, and it’s exciting. There is no things to get around,” said Cincinnati manager, Terry Francona, about Burns. “This is a message. I think it sends a huge message that we are trying to win, and there is no guarantee, but when, when everyone is on the same wavelength, pulling in the same direction, it makes you a little.”
The Yankees will thwart the left-handed Carlos Rodon (9-5, 3.10 ERA), making its 17th start of the season. Last Thursday against the Los Angeles Angels, Rodon won his ninth victory after granting three points – in three solo circuits – in six rounds.
Rodon recorded at least seven stick withdrawals in 11 of his 16 departures this season. The SouthPaw is 8-2 with an MPM of 2.35 in its last 12 departures. Rodon has a 2-2 sheet in four career starts against Cincinnati, including an MPM of 3.32.
During the 6-1 victory of Cincinnati on Monday, the Yankees had their chances but went 0 for 12 with runners in the score position.
“We did not put the ball in play with runners when we had opportunities,” said Yankees manager Aaron Boone.
It was an entertaining evening for the fans while Aaron’s judge bypassed a higher bridge circuit in the first for an advance of 1-0 in New York. But the biggest star in Cincinnati – Elly de la Cruz responded with three strokes and entered a double of the two -year birthday at his first cycle against the Braves of Atlanta on June 23, 2023.
“He can strike, he can launch, he has the wheels, he has power – we saw him tonight. It is a total package,” said the judge about de la Cruz. “You don’t want to see him find guys on the basis, or honestly, in any situation.”
