Reds manager David Bell said Tuesday that Lodolo (finger) won't return from the 15-day injured list before the end of the season, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. The left-hander will end up missing the final five-plus weeks of the season due to the sprained finger he sustained Aug. 22 against the Pirates. Lodolo should have plenty of time to get healthy before the start of spring training and closes out the 2024 season with a 4.76 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 122:37 K:BB over 115.1 innings (21 starts).

Lodolo (finger) will meet with a doctor Monday and then join teammates in St. Louis the following day, MLB.com reports. Cincinnati manager David Bell said Saturday that if Lodolo can bend his finger "all the way," then the left-hander will start a throwing program. Lodolo has spent four different stints on the injured list in 2024 with four different injuries.

Lodolo's sprained left middle finger will be in a splint until Sept. 9, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. Lodolo landed on the 15-day injured list earlier this week and will have the finger immobilized for a couple weeks. While the Reds have not ruled out a return for the lefty before the end of the season, it will be difficult for him to make it back.

Lodolo might miss the remainder of the regular season due to his sprained finger, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. "It's not concerning for the long term, but it's a rare injury that could keep him out for the year," manager David Bell said of Lodolo. "That's the bottom line." Lodolo further said that the sprain has been bothering him for most of the summer, dating back to when he developed a blister on his pitching finger.

The Reds placed Lodolo on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a left middle finger sprain. It's not clear how long Lodolo's finger has been bothering him, but it's worth noting he holds a 9.75 ERA over his last five starts. The left-hander will be eligible to return on Sept. 8, although it's uncertain at this point whether he has a shot to be back by that time. Jakob Junis is sliding into the rotation in Lodolo's place.
