The Cincinnati Reds reinstated left-handed starter Nick Lodolo from the 15-day injured list on Monday.

Lodolo will start against the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday afternoon. He last pitched May 11.

In a corresponding move, the Reds optioned RHP Carson Spiers to Triple-A Louisville.

The Reds placed Lodolo on the 15-day injured list earlier this month with a left groin strain.
