The Reds placed starter\u00a0Nick Lodolo<\/a> on the 15-day injured list with a blister on his left index finger. Reliever\u00a0Yosver Zulueta<\/a> is up from Triple-A Louisville to fill the active roster spot.<\/p>\n

Lodolo left last night\u2019s start at Wrigley Field in the second inning. He has dealt with blister issues in the past, including one on his index finger that cost him a couple weeks last season. Manager Terry Francona indicated the history played a role in the team\u2019s decision to put him on the shelf (ESPN link<\/a>). There\u2019s no indication he\u2019ll be out beyond the minimum stint.<\/p>\n

Aside from a three-day stay on the paternity list, this is Lodolo\u2019s first absence of the season. The 27-year-old southpaw has a 3.05 ERA across 23 starts. He has recorded a solid 23.6% strikeout rate against a tidy 4.6% walk percentage while logging a career-high 129 2\/3 innings. This has easily been the best season for the former seventh overall pick. Lodolo has pitched at a top-of-the-rotation level of late, turning in a sub-2.00 ERA while striking out 27% of opponents over his past nine starts.<\/p>\n

Cincinnati will need to skip at least two of Lodolo\u2019s turns through the rotation. They\u2019re not going to replace his recent production but are well equipped to withstand a brief absence. The Zack Littell<\/a> trade was going to push\u00a0Nick Martinez<\/a> to the bullpen. The veteran swingman can stick in the rotation for another turn.\u00a0Hunter Greene<\/a> could be back after that, but he\u2019ll need at least one more rehab start with Louisville this week. Greene has been out since the beginning of June with a groin strain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Reds placed starter\u00a0Nick Lodolo on the 15-day injured list with a blister on his left index finger.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48483,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[49,48,33333,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-48482","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-nick-lodolo","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48482","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48482"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48482\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48482"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48482"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48482"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
