MINNEAPOLIS – The Red bullpen is at full strength.

Right-hander David Hernandez was activated Friday. The veteran right-hander had been on the disabled list since the start of the season with a sore right shoulder.

“I’m really happy to see David in there," Reds manager Jim Riggleman said. 'It was a good acquisition over the winter. We’ll get him in there and see how much he can do and how often and all that stuff. It’s another veteran guy to go along with (Jared) Hughes.
