Chase Burns

ANALYSIS
Burns will pitch some in the instructional league in the fall as well, following the same path as last year's first-round pick, Rhett Lowder. "Multiple factors played into the decision," Reds player development director Jeremy Farrell recently said. "But given the time off he had from the end of the Wake Forest season and wanting to set him up for 2025, the plan will be for him to pitch competitively in instructional league and then go into a normal offseason routine to prepare for next year."
