Chase Burns officially signed a seven-year, $105 million contract with the Cincinnati Reds, despite a coffee spill delaying the signing process at Coors Field. This contract is historic, marking the largest ever for a pitcher with less than four years of service time, reflecting the Reds’ confidence in the 23-year-old, who boasts an impressive 11-1 record with a 2.54 ERA. After debuting in June 2025, Burns is now considered a key figure for the team. His next start is scheduled against the Seattle Mariners.
