Shelved with elbow sprain The Reds placed Dunn on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right elbow sprain.

Impact Dunn was sent in for an MRI on Saturday after being lifted from Friday's 6-4 win over the Pirates due to an elbow injury, and though results of his initial medical tests were inconclusive, he's since been diagnosed with a sprain and will need to miss time. Cincinnati recalled T.J. Friedl from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding move, but it's unclear if he'll be deployed in the strong side of a platoon in center field in Dunn's stead, or if Dane Myers will step in as the preferred option against both righties and lefties. Noelvi Marte has also made two starts in center field this season but is more ideally suited for a corner-outfield spot.

MRI inconclusive Dunn (elbow) underwent an MRI on Saturday and is likely to return to Cincinnati for more testing, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

Impact Dunn was not in Saturday's lineup after being removed from Friday's game with elbow discomfort. The Reds want to conduct further tests before landing on a diagnosis. "Until we get more back, he will stay with us today. And then we'll try to get as much information as we can," Reds manager Terry Francona said. Dunn was replaced in center field by Dane Myers and as the team's leadoff hitter by Elly De La Cruz.

Remaining out Saturday Dunn (elbow) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Pirates.

Impact Right elbow discomfort forced Dunn to make an early exit from Friday's game and will now cause him to miss at least one additional start. Manager Terry Francona said Saturday that the 27-year-old will likely head back to Cincinnati for further evaluation, after which the team would have a better idea of whether a trip to the IL will be necessary, per Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati. Dane Myers will start in center field and bat seventh Saturday.

Heading to bench Wednesday Dunn is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

Impact Dunn has hit a bit of a lull at the plate, slashing just .125/.222/.188 with one double, two walks, one steal and two RBI over his last four games. The Reds likely aren't ready to pull the plug on Dunn as an everyday player, but he could end up becoming an odd man out of the lineup more frequently if Cincinnati wants to open up more playing time Edwin Arroyo or Noelvi Marte. Arroyo will replace Dunn as the Reds' leadoff man Wednesday after batting ninth in his previous three starts.

Dunn is now batting .290 with a .746 OPS, five thefts, two home runs, five RBI, 14 runs scored, four doubles and a triple over 107 plate appearances. He plays center field against right-handed pitchers and shifts over to a corner outfield spot against lefties.

Three hits Saturday Dunn went 3-for-4 with a double, a run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Cardinals.

The 27-year-old has seized a regular role in the Cincinnati outfield by batting .324 (23-for-71) over his last 17 games with one homer, two steals, four RBI and 10 runs.
