The Cincinnati Reds placed left-hander Nick Lodolo on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a blister on his left index finger.

Lodolo left the series opener against the Chicago Cubs on Monday after just 1 2/3 innings. Five relievers went the rest of the way for the Reds, who won 3-2 and sit three games out of the National League's third and final wild-card berth entering Tuesday.

Lodolo, 27, is 8-6 with a 3.05 ERA in 23 appearances (all starts) this season.

A first-round draft pick (seventh overall) by Cincinnati in 2019, Lodolo is 23-20 with a 4.02 ERA in 70 career appearances (all starts) with the team.

Also on Tuesday, the Reds recalled right-hander Yosver Zulueta from Triple-A Louisville.

Zulueta, 27, has a 3.86 ERA without a decision in two relief appearances this season with Cincinnati. He allowed one run on no hits over 2 1/3 innings. He made 12 appearances in 2024, his first major league season, pitching 16 1/3 innings and giving up nine earned runs with 20 strikeouts and seven walks. He has yet to register a decision in the majors.
