Career


Davis attended Dixon High School in Holly Ridge, North Carolina. As a 15-year-old in early 2009, he committed to play college baseball at East Carolina University.[1] Davis was drafted by the New York Yankees in the 14th round of the 2011 Major League Baseball Draft.[2] He signed with the Yankees instead of attending East Carolina.[3] He made his professional debut in 2012 with the Gulf Coast Yankees. In 2013, he pitched for the Staten Island Yankees and Charleston RiverDogs and spent 2014 with Charleston.[4] He started 2015 with the Tampa Yankees.[5] The Yankees added him to their 40-man roster after the season.[6]


On December 28, 2015, Davis was traded to the Reds with Caleb Cotham, Tony Renda, and Eric Jagielo in exchange for Aroldis Chapman.[7] Davis made the Reds' Opening Day roster in 2017[8] and made his major league debut on April 6 against the Phillies.


Davis picked up his first major league win on May 3, pitching 5 scoreless innings over the Pirates in a 7-2 win.


He was outrighted to AAA on August 27, 2018 and became a free agent at the conclusion of the season.[9]



Personal life


Davis' father, Billy, also attended Dixon High School, and played college baseball for Louisburg College. His older sisters, Lauren and Ayrien, both played softball and basketball at Dixon.[10]
