Chase Petty

The Cincinnati Reds recalled right-handed pitching prospect Chase Petty from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday and optioned right-hander Zach McCambley to Louisville in a corresponding move, the team announced. It will be Petty's second stint in the big leagues this year after he allowed seven earned runs on 10 hits (two homers) while walking three and striking out only two in 10 2/3 frames in his two starts with the Reds. The 23-year-old former first-rounder by the Minnesota Twins in 2021 also struggled in his MLB debut in 2025, surrendering 14 runs (13 earned) while walking eight and fanning seven in just six innings over three outings (two starts) in Cincy. The New Jersey native will come up this time around to provide the Reds' bullpen with some depth after an extra-inning game on Tuesday night at Petco Park in which they used six different relievers. Per MLB Pipeline, Petty is ranked as the team's No. 7 prospect, but in a relief role, he will not have much fantasy upside in a short-term role in single-year formats after his latest call-up.
