Reds Recall Vladimir Gutierrez

By Anthony Franco | May 28, 2021 at 1:26pm CDT

The Reds have recalled right-hander Vladimir Gutierrez to start this afternoon’s game against the Cubs. Reliever Ashton Goudeau was optioned to Triple-A Louisville to open active roster space. Gutierrez will be making his major league debut.

Gutierrez, 25, was a high-profile international amateur prospect who joined the Reds on a $4.75MM bonus in September 2016. He posted serviceable but unspectacular numbers between High-A and Double-A over his first two minor league seasons before a disastrous first crack at Triple-A. Gutierrez pitched to a 6.04 ERA in 137 innings with Louisville in 2019, then missed all of last season after being suspended for performance-enhancing drugs.

Nevertheless, the Reds added him to the 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft over the winter. He’ll now get a big league call after a much better beginning this year in Triple-A. Over three starts with Louisville, Gutierrez has tossed seventeen innings of five-run ball, striking out 21 with seven walks. With Jeff Hoffman now on the injured list with a shoulder impingement, Gutierrez could get a few starts to try to cement himself in the big league rotation.

While Hoffman is headed to the injured list, another Reds starter is expected back in the next couple days. Lefty Wade Miley, who went on the IL May 21 with a foot sprain, will start Monday’s game against the Phillies, manager David Bell told reporters (including Mark Sheldon of MLB.com).

    Based on his results so far, it sounds like Mr Guttierez might be back on the PEDs

      Players have to be in AAA to be recalled this season. Covid protocols.

    I wonder if we will get to Santillan this season. Figured this would be perfect spot for him.

    Right before his start soon Friday I picked up a guy named Vladimir Gutierrez in one of my NL-only. It looks like at least for his first MLB start that it was a fortuitous pickup. 5 IP, 2 HA, 1 ER, and a 3/2 K/BB. Gutierrez had his dealing with a controlled substance and his minor league ERA of 4.88 in 404 IP (and a 5.67 ERA at AAA) don’t scream “roster me.” But his 2021 numbers in Triple-A: 17 IP, 9 HA, 5 ER, and a 21/7 K/BB did at least give me thought.

      You rattle off his past and minor league stats yet start the post with “picked up a guy named”…..like you had no clue who he is. Ok, you’re a genius….here’s some advice, the wind was howling at Wrigley today….guarantee his next start wont be so “fortuitous.” Dump him now.

        Mike, love your confidence in my “genius” or the usual lack of it. I’ll take the good luck with a pound of salt (as per always) and cross my fingers and toes for a decent start down the road if there is one. But basically, Gutierrez already has one foot out the door. Though, checking the wind variables at Wrigley before game time certainly was (let’s say) insightful.
