BOSTON – As soon as the Cincinnati Reds start to look a little healthier, another injury hit keeps coming.
Tyler Naquin was placed on the 10-day injured list before Wednesday’s game against the Boston Red Sox with a strained left quad. TJ Friedl was promoted from Triple-A Louisville.
Naquin will be evaluated by a doctor when the Reds return to Cincinnati on Thursday. The Reds now have 14 players on the injured list.
“We believe he’s also getting a second opinion,” Reds Manager David Bell said. “It’s going to be a little while. I think the good news is quads can be a little bit different than a hamstring, so I think you can maybe come back a little quicker from that.
