The Cincinnati Reds are calling up their top prospect Chase Burns to Triple-A Louisville, according to Wake Forest Baseball.

They selected Burns with the second overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft.

Burns has made 11 starts between High-A Dayton and Double-A Chattanooga. In 53 2/3 innings, Burns has a 1.68 ERA, a WHIP of 0.75 and opponents are hitting just .166 against him.

On Saturday, Burns tossed seven shutout innings while striking out six for Double-A Chattanooga.

If Burns continues to dominate at Triple-A Louisville, it wouldn't be surprising to see Burns in the big leagues before the season ends.
