Getting another start Santillan is scheduled to make his second start Friday agains the Padres in San Diego.

Impact Neither Sonny Gray (groin) nor Jeff Hoffman (shoulder) will be ready to return from the 10-day injured list when the Reds next require a fifth starter Friday, so Santillan will be awarded another turn through the rotation after a so-so MLB debut against Colorado over the weekend. Though he limited the Rockies to one run, efficiency was an issue for Santillan, who pumped in only 52 of his 97 pitches for strikes while failing to make it out of the fifth inning. He'll need to show better control against a superior Padres offense if he hopes to continue keeping runs off the board.

Solid in MLB debut Santillan didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Rockies after giving up one run on five hits and four walks while fanning five across 4.2 innings.

Impact Santillan ended just one out away from securing the win in his MLB debut, though removing him with one out left in the fifth was probably the right decision considering he had walked two while also hitting Trevor Story in that same inning. Despite the command issues, it was a decent debut for Santillan, who took advantage of a favorable matchup against the Rockies away from Coors Field. He's expected to make another start next week and, tentatively, he'd line up to pitch in a far tougher matchup against the Padres on the road.

Making big-league debut Sunday Santillan will start Sunday's game against the Rockies in Cincinnati.

Impact As expected, the 24-year-old right-hander will temporarily slot into the rotation as a replacement for Sonny Gray (groin), who is expected to miss at least two starts while he's on the injured list. Santillan excelled over his six starts at Louisville this season, posting a 2.45 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and a 45:12 K:BB in 32.1 innings. He'll draw a favorable matchup Sunday for his big-league debut against a Rockies offense that ranks last in the majors with a team-wide 58 wRC+ away from Coors Field this season.

Impact Santillan will step into the rotation for at least one start with Sonny Gray (groin) and Jeff Hoffman (shoulder) both injured. He's not a particularly highly-rated prospect, though he's started this season well at Triple-A Louisville, posting a 2.51 ERA and a 34.4 percent strikeout rate through six starts.
