Levi Stoudt (born December 4, 1997) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Seattle Mariners of Major League Baseball (MLB). He has previously played in MLB for the Cincinnati Reds, for whom he made his debut in 2023.
Amateur career[edit]
Stoudt attended Perkiomen School in Pennsburg, Pennsylvania, and played college baseball at Lehigh University. In 2018, he played collegiate summer baseball with the Orleans Firebirds of the Cape Cod Baseball League.[1] He was drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the third round of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft.[2][3]
Professional career[edit]
Seattle Mariners[edit]
Stoudt underwent Tommy John Surgery after the Mariners drafted him.[4] He made his professional debut two years later in 2021 with the Everett AquaSox and was promoted to the Arkansas Travelers during the season.[5][6] Over 15 starts between the two teams, he went 7–3 with a 3.31 ERA and 86 strikeouts over 81+2⁄3 innings.[7]
Cincinnati Reds[edit]
On July 29, 2022, the Mariners traded Stoudt, Edwin Arroyo, Andrew Moore, and Noelvi Marte to the Cincinnati Reds for Luis Castillo.[8] He played for the Chattanooga Lookouts after the trade. On November 15, 2022, the Reds added Stoudt to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[9]
Stoudt began the 2023 season with the Louisville Bats. On April 18, the Reds announced that Stoudt would be promoted to the major leagues for the first time to start a game against the Tampa Bay Rays the following day.[10] In 4 games (2 starts) for the Reds, he posted a 9.58 ERA with 9 strikeouts across 10+1⁄3 innings of work. On February 13, 2024, Stoudt was designated for assignment by the Reds following the waiver claim of Bubba Thompson.[11]
Seattle Mariners (second stint)[edit]
On February 17, 2024, Stoudt was claimed off waivers by the Mariners.[12] He was optioned to the Triple–A Tacoma Rainiers to begin the 2024 season.[13]
