Reed

Reed hasn’t allowed a run in his last two starts. Over that span, he’s recorded 18 strikeouts with only four walks. Opponents have hit just .173 against the left-hander in 98 at-bats. Saturday’s six-inning outing was the longest of Reed’s career. Arizona selected Reed in the second round of the 2014 draft.

Reed hadn’t pitched since the Arizona Fall League. The 19-year-old had trouble finding the strike zone at times but his three walks were balanced out by four strikeouts. The left-hander throws a low 90s heater, a changeup and a plus slider. He should get a bigger workload in his next outing.
