The Reds called up top prospect Chase Burns from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday. In a corresponding roster move, they optioned Yosver Zulueta to Louisville. They also sent outfielder Austin Hays on a rehab assignment with Double-A Chattanooga.

Despite a presumptive glut of corner infield options on the roster and in the upper minors of their system, the Cincinnati Reds sprung to sign Jeimer Candelario to a 3-year, $45 million deal prior to the start of the 2024 season.
