Chase Burns allowed five runs (one earned) on five hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings in Tuesday's loss to the Guardians.

EDGE Analysis

Burns has offered mixed results on the mound of late, allowing three runs or more in two of his last four contests. The right-hander remains one of the more reliable arms as part of an underperforming Reds rotation for manager Terry Francona, posting a 2.40 ERA and 1.12 WHIP with a 12-1 record and 10.2 K/9 ratio across 20 starts.

Monday's contest between the Cleveland Guardians and Cincinnati Reds has been postponed due to inclement weather the club announced.

EDGE Analysis

It is the largest guarantee given to a pitcher with less than four years of MLB service. Burns has quickly established himself as one of the top young starting pitchers in baseball, posting a 2.54 ERA with 118 strikeouts across the first half of the season.

Burns will not play in Tuesday's All-Star Game due to a right groin injury he suffered during his last start Wednesday, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Burns, who labored through five innings and 106 pitches, was injured while covering home plate on a wild pitch. The right-hander said he didn't feel anything wrong while on the mound for the rest of the game but felt tightness the following day. He huddled with manager Terry Francona and the front office and decided it was best to not represent the National League in the midsummer classic. There has been no mention of imaging, which suggests the 23-year-old could return following the All-Star break.

Burns (11-1) earned the win Wednesday against the Phillies, allowing three runs on three hits and six walks in five innings. He struck out two.

EDGE Analysis

Burns nabbed the win Wednesday but certainly didn't have his best stuff, walking a season-high six and matching a season low in punchouts. The hard-throwing right-hander was still able to hang in there for his 18th consecutive start with at least five frames to begin the year, needing a season-high 106 pitches to do so. Burns will bring a stellar 2.54 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 118:37 K:BB across 102.2 frames into the All-Star break.
