Dispatched to minors The Reds optioned Zulueta to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.

Impact The hard-throwing Zulueta struck out 20 batters over 16.1 innings in relief in his first taste of the big leagues in 2024, but a 10.1 percent walk rate prevented him from gaining much traction in higher-leverage spots. Spotty command had been an issue again for Zulueta in his limited sample of innings this spring, so the Reds will send the 27-year-old to Louisville to work out the kinks. He'll likely rank near the top of the list for a promotion whenever Cincinnati requires a fresh arm out of the bullpen.

Impact Zulueta has made a nice impression during his brief time with the Reds, yielding just one run with a 4:2 K:BB across five relief innings. He has minor-league options remaining, however, and the team is taking advantage. Zulueta should be back with the big club sooner rather than later.

Sent to minors by TOR Zulueta was optioned Monday to minor-league camp by the Blue Jays, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Impact Zulueta comes up short in his bid to make the Toronto roster out of camp despite not allowing a run in his three Grapefruit League appearances with a 3:2 K:BB. The hard-throwing 25-year-old could be one of the first arms that the Blue Jays turn to over the spring, as he's ranked as one of the top pitching prospects in their system.

Could win bullpen spot Zulueta has a chance to win a spot in the big-league bullpen this spring, MLB Pipeline reports.

Impact Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic had the same report a month ago, and it makes sense as Toronto is in win-now mode and Zulueta's fastball/slider combo could give big-league hitters fits in the short term. The Blue Jays continues to say they view Zulueta as a starter long term, but he walked 18 batters in 20 innings across Double-A and Triple-A last season, so he may fit better as a high-leverage reliever.
