The Reds placed All-Star thirdbaseman Scott Rolen on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to Thursday with a strained left shoulder. The team recalled Todd Frazier from Triple A Louisville.
Rolen missed three games this week with Miguel Cairo starting in his place. Frazier leads the Bats and is tied for eighth in the International League with 15 home runs. He is hitting .260 but has been around the .300 mark much of the season. Frazier was with the Reds on May 23 and struck out in his only appearance. He was sent out for a pitcher when the Reds pitching staff endured a 19-inning game in Philadelphia and needed another pitcher.
The Reds reinstated righthander Jose Arredondo from the 15-day disabled list and sent lefthander Jeremy Horst to Louisville.
