## Resource

The Reds just dropped a blockbuster: Chase Burns, their 2024 second-round draft pick, is locked in for seven years and $105 million — the largest guaranteed deal ever for a Reds pitcher. Lights-out since his debut, Burns is already a top-tier ace with an 11-1 record, a 2.54 ERA, and 118 strikeouts in just over 100 innings. This move, equaling Homer Bailey’s historic contract, pairs him with Hunter Greene for a generational pitching duo. Burns, sidelined for the All-Star Game with a hamstring issue, is set to return Tuesday against Seattle — a bold statement that the Reds are building their future around this young superstar.
