The Cincinnati Reds activated left-hander Nick Lodolo from the 60-day injured list Tuesday among a flurry of moves.

Lodolo, 24, took the mound Tuesday night and started for the Reds against the New York Mets. He threw 4 2/3 innings, striking out eight, and left a scoreless game.

The Reds also activated Tyler Naquin from the IL and immediately plugged him back into the starting lineup in right field. Naquin was out just over a month due to a strained left quadriceps.

In addition, Cincinnati claimed right-hander Ian Gibaut off waivers from the Los Angeles Dodgers.

In corresponding moves, the Reds optioned infielder/outfielder Max Schrock to Triple-A Louisville, transferred right-hander Tony Santillan to the 60-day IL, optioned catcher Mark Kolozsvary to Louisville and designated catcher Chris Okey for assignment.

Lodolo made his fourth career start — all this season — and his first since April 24. He landed on the 10-day IL on April 28 with a lower right back strain and was transferred to the 60-day IL on June 21.

Gibaut didn’t make an appearance for the Dodgers after they claimed him off waivers from the Cleveland Guardians on June 30. Gibaut appeared in just one game for Cleveland.

Schrock hit .167 in 11 games for the Reds.

Santillan was placed on the 15-day IL on June 17 with lower back pain. He is 0-1 with a 5.49 ERA and four saves in 21 games this season.

Kolozsvary is 1-for-11 in six games for Cincinnati this year. He didn’t make an appearance in his latest major league stint, which landed just one day.
