Yosver José Zulueta (born January 23, 1998) is a Cuban professional baseball pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds of Major League Baseball (MLB).
Career
Toronto Blue Jays
Zulueta signed with the Toronto Blue Jays as an international free agent on June 11, 2019.[1] He spent 2020 recovering from Tommy John surgery, though the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2]
Zulueta made his professional debut in 2021 with the Low-A Dunedin Blue Jays but pitched in only one game due to a torn ACL.[3] He returned from the injury to start 2022 with Dunedin before being promoted to the High-A Vancouver Canadians, and later played with the Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats and Triple-A Buffalo Bisons. In 21 total appearances, Zulueta pitched to a 2–5 win–loss record, 3.72 earned run average (ERA), and 84 strikeouts in 55+2⁄3 innings pitched.[4]
On November 15, 2022, the Blue Jays added Zulueta to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[5] Zulueta was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo to begin the 2023 season.[6] In 45 games for the club, he registered a 4–4 record and 4.08 ERA with 73 strikeouts across 64.0 innings pitched. Zulueta was again optioned to Triple–A Buffalo to begin the 2024 season.[7] However, on March 28, 2024, he was designated for assignment by Toronto.[8]
Cincinnati Reds
On March 28, 2024, Zulueta was claimed off waivers by the Cincinnati Reds and subsequently optioned to the Triple–A Louisville Bats.[9] He was promoted to the major leagues for the first time on June 25.[10]
