Chase Burns will be the fifth first -round pick from last year’s draft to reach the majors.

He was the second overall pick in the 2024 amateur draft.

Reds manager Terry Francona says he doesn't give a (darn) about the mystique of his debut against the Yankees .

Burns' strength is his fastball, which is averaging 97 mph and hits triple digits.

It reinforces and shows they believe in us as well, which is pretty cool,” said outfielder Gavin Lux , who homered in the win. “Guys are pulling for each other and we’re starting to gain some momentum.”.
