Watch: Cincinnati Reds Top Prospect Chase Burns Impresses in Double-A Debut

The Cincinnati Reds top prospect, Chase Burns, made his Double-A debut on Saturday night for the Chattanooga Lookouts.

The 2024 second overall draft pick did not disappoint.

He gave up one run on five hits in four innings of work.

He struck out five and walked a batter.

The right-hander started the 2025 season in High-A with the Dayton Dragons and made three starts with an ERA of 3.09.

He struck out 20 in 11 2/3 innings.

I think the thing that I've learned the most from is just really taking care of your body," Burns told Jonathan Mayo on the MLB Pipeline podcast .

"You're throwing every day, you're at the field every day, and just your workload.

As a pitcher, we see a lot of injuries now, and I think people are doing a better job now of taking care of their arms and looking at how many throws we're throwing each day.

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