Elly De La Cruz Placed on IL with Right Hamstring Tightness
Cincinnati Reds superstar Elly De La Cruz (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with right hamstring tightness, per Charlie Goldsmith of FOX19. The Reds called up top shortstop prospect Edwin Arroyo in a corresponding move. De La Cruz felt the issue rounding first base on a leadoff single in the fifth inning of Sunday's win over the Braves and was pulled right away. He's scheduled for an MRI on Monday to get a clearer timeline to determine the severity of his hamstring issue. In the meantime, Matt McLain and the newly called-up Arroyo will handle shortstop, with Spencer Steer sliding around the infield for flexibility. Deeper-league managers chasing speed and upside should strongly consider adding Arroyo as a nice temporary boost. Before getting the call to the show on Monday, Arroyo slashed .323/.383/.562 with 11 home runs and nine stolen bases across 248 plate appearances for Triple-A Louisville.
