    Reds' Chase Burns: Adding sinker

    Chase Burns (groin) worked on adding a sinker in his September outings before getting placed on the 15-day injured list to end his season, Charlie Goldsmith of FOX19 reports.Burns used the sinker nine times in his last start against the Cubs, with the purpose of giving his fastball another look. "It was moving a lot," Burns said. "Why not? My normal fastball is a cut-carry. This looks different to them. Having two fastballs is the big new thing. You look at Cam Schlittler. He has a cutter, a fastball and a sinker."

    Reds' Chase Burns: Out with groin strain

    The Cincinnati Reds placed Chase Burns on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right groin strain.The right-hander's workload has been limited during the final weeks of his rookie campaign, and he'll be shut down a bit early due to a groin injury.

It was a strong debut season for the 23-year-old, who went 15-3 in 2026 with a 2.86 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 185:56 K:BB across 154.1 innings.

    Reds' Chase Burns: Strong for three innings

    Chase Burns walked one and struck out five over three scoreless, no-hit innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Monday.Burns' workload is being curtailed late in the season. He threw just 44 pitches (26 strikes) in this contest, and similar pitch counts can be expected for the remainder of his starts. Unless he moves to the back half of a piggyback situation, it will be virtually impossible for him to work deep enough to qualify for wins. Burns is at a 2.73 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 176:51 K:BB through 148.1 innings over 27 starts this year. He is expected to work in tandem with Brandon Williamson again over the weekend in Milwaukee.

    Reds' Chase Burns: Off until Monday, innings limit on tap

    Manager Terry Francona said that Chase Burns won't make his next start until Sept. 7 against the Dodgers in Los Angeles, and the Cincinnati Reds intend to monitor his innings and pitch counts for the remainder of the season, Joe Danneman of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.Though he had no formal restrictions in place over his first 26 starts of the season, Burns will have his workload managed the rest of the way since he's already amassed 145.1 innings in 2026, surpassing his 2025 total by more than 30 innings. More specifically, Francona mentioned that he plans to have Brandon Williamson (shoulder) -- who is set to return from the 60-day injured list to start Wednesday against the Padres -- piggyback the 23-year-old Burns whenever the latter's turn in the rotation comes up in September. With a 65-72 record, the Reds are well removed from the wild-card picture, so ensuring the long-term health of their young ace will take on added import over the final month of a non-contending season.
