Career
Cuban career
Gutiérrez played for the Cuba national baseball team at the 2014 Central American and Caribbean Games.[1][2] He played in the Cuban National Series for the Vegueros de Pinar del Río and was the Rookie of the Year for the 2013–2014 season.[3] Gutierrez was selected to represent his country in an international tournament but left his Pinar del Rio team during the Caribbean Series in February 2015 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. He made his way to Mexico, where he eventually established residency in May. Major League Baseball declared him to be a free agent on July 7, 2015.[4][5][6]
Cincinnati Reds
On August 30, 2016, Gutiérrez signed with the Cincinnati Reds for $4.75 million.[7] He made his professional debut in 2017 for the Daytona Tortugas and spent the whole season there, going 7–8 with a 4.46 ERA in 19 starts.[8] He pitched for the Pensacola Blue Wahoos in 2018[9] and the Louisville Bats in 2019.[10]
On June 28, 2020, Gutiérrez was suspended 80 games for testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance. On November 20, 2020, Gutiérrez was added to the 40-man roster.[11]
On April 25, 2021, Gutiérrez was activated off the restricted list and assigned to the alternate training site.[12] On May 28, Gutiérrez was promoted to the major leagues for the first time to be the starting pitcher against the Chicago Cubs.[13] In his debut, Gutiérrez took the loss after pitching 5.0 innings of 2-hit ball, one of the two hits being a solo home run from Cubs infielder David Bote. He also notched his first strikeout in the game, punching out Cubs catcher Willson Contreras. In his rookie campaign, Gutiérrez was 9–6 over 22 starts, posting a 4.74 ERA with 88 strikeouts in 114 innings. Gutiérrez received a single vote in National League Rookie of the Year voting, tying him for eighth place with David Bednar.[14]
In 2022, Gutiérrez made 10 appearances (8 starts) for the Reds, struggling to a 1–6 record and 7.61 ERA with 29 strikeouts in 36.2 innings of work. In June, Gutiérrez suffered a first degree strain of his ulnar collateral ligament, and underwent Tommy John surgery on July 22. The procedure subsequently ended his 2022 season.[15]
Gutiérrez began the 2023 season on the injured list as he continued to recover from Tommy John surgery. On July 28, 2023, he began a rehab assignment with the rookie–level Arizona Complex League Reds.[16] In mid–August, Gutiérrez advanced his rehab to the Triple–A Louisville Bats.[17] However, shortly after on August 17, he was pulled off of rehab assignment, and did not appear for Cincinnati during the year.[18] On October 9, Gutiérrez was removed from the 40–man roster and sent outright to Triple–A Louisville.[19] He elected free agency on October 26.[20]
Miami Marlins
On February 22, 2024, Gutiérrez signed a minor league contract with the Miami Marlins.[21] On March 31, his contract was selected to the active roster.[22] He pitched in that day's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, allowing three runs on three hits and four strikeouts in four innings pitched. The next day, Gutiérrez was designated for assignment by Miami.[23]
Milwaukee Brewers
On April 5, 2024, Gutiérrez was claimed off waivers by the Milwaukee Brewers.[24]
