The Reds recalled Petty from Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.
Petty will provide the Reds with a fresh arm out of the bullpen heading into Sunday's series finale versus the Cubs. Though the Reds have a temporary opening in the rotation after Nick Lodolo (finger) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move, Petty may not be in consideration to replace him after he recently transitioned into a bullpen role at Louisville prior to his call-up. Petty turned in a 6.17 ERA and 1.54 WHIP over 10 starts at Triple-A before tossing a pair of scoreless innings in relief in his last two outings for Louisville.

Reds' Chase Petty: Sent down to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Reds optioned Petty to Triple-A Louisville following Friday's game against the Orioles.
The move makes room on the Reds' 26-man roster for Hunter Greene (elbow), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start against Baltimore on Saturday. Petty has appeared in 10 major-league games (two starts) for Cincinnati this season and has a 4.37 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, one save and a 9:7 K:BB across 22.2 innings.
Petty earned the save in Saturday's 9-7 win over the Pirates, allowing no hits and one walk in a scoreless ninth inning. He did not record a strikeout.
Petty was called on to protect a two-run lead in the ninth inning and needed just 12 pitches to collect his first major-league save. The 23-year-old has been strong since being recalled June 10, allowing just one earned run in six outings during that stretch. He owns a 3.72 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 8:2 K across 19.1 innings with the Reds this season, though he likely won't factor into the closer mix once Emilio Pagan (hamstring) returns from his current rehab assignment.

Reds' Chase Petty: Earns first MLB win
Rotowire
Petty (1-1) was the winning pitcher Saturday, giving up one hit and striking out one over 1.2 relief innings in a 2-1 win over Arizona.
Petty, a member of the rotation at Triple-A Louisville, was called up earlier in the week to give the Reds some bullpen length. He entered a tie game with one out and two runners on in the seventh inning and made the high-leverage situation thornier when he hit the first batter he faced. The right-hander then got two critical outs to escape the jam and became the pitcher of record when Noelvi Marte whacked a go-ahead home run in the eighth. The win was Petty's first in the majors.

Reds' Chase Petty: Tough showing at Triple-A
Rotowire
Petty (blister) took the loss after allowing seven runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out one over three innings against Triple-A Indianapolis on Sunday.
Petty battled a blister on his pitching hand in his previous start, but he was cleared to toe the rubber Sunday. He turned in one of his worst outings of the 2026 season, tying a season high in hits allowed and runs allowed. Unless the team states otherwise, Petty appears to have put the blister behind him.

Reds' Chase Petty: Dealing with blister at Triple-A
Rotowire
Reds manager Terry Francona said Tuesday that Petty was dealing with a blister during his start for Triple-A Louisville on Sunday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
Petty bit the blister off his finger and continued pitching, but he allowed three runs on six hits with a 1:3 K:BB over 3.2 innings. It's unclear when Petty will make his next start, but the blister issue takes him out of consideration for a start with the Reds later this week.

Petty will be the Reds' starting pitcher for Monday's contest versus the Cubs in place of the injured Brandon Williamson (shoulder).

Petty's stint in the big leagues could be brief, however, as Nick Lodolo (finger) is on track to be activated from the IL next weekend. Over six starts with Louisville this season, Petty has submitted a 4.38 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 29:11 K:BB over 24.2 innings.

Petty appears to have been removed early after Cincinnati starter Brandon Williamson was pulled from his start Wednesday against the Rockies due to left shoulder fatigue.

Petty holds a 4.38 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 29:11 K:BB across 24.2 frames at Triple-A this season.
