22 Derek Dietrich 2B

Dietrich (leg) pinch-hit in Monday's loss to the Dodgers and is in the starting lineup Tuesday, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

A day after the Reds used a righty-heavy lineup against Clayton Kershaw, they've made a radical shift on Tuesday that includes Dietrich in the lineup instead of Jose Iglesias, and also has Joey Votto leading off.

Dietrich was hit by a pitch Sunday on the leg and was unable to remain in the game, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Dietrich was hit by a wicked slider from Jordan Hicks and tried to test out his leg by first base, but couldn't put enough weight upon it to run. Tyler Mahle pinch-ran for him, as the Reds were out of position players to use as a runner.

Dietrich went 2-for-4 with a triple, home run and three RBI in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Reds in Mexico.

Dietrich was 0-for-8 with four strikeouts since his two-homer outburst last Sunday, but found his power stroke again in Mexico. The 29-year-old is slashing .233/.281/.733 with four home runs and 11 RBI in 30 at-bats this season.

Dietrich went 2-for-4 with a pair of massive two-run homers in a 7-5 loss to the Pirates on Sunday.

Filling in for Joey Votto, Dietrich went deep twice and both homers reached the Allegheny River at PNC Park. On the first bomb, Dietrich was the subject of some controversy because he admired his homer a little too long, and Pirates starter Chris Archer threw behind his back the following at-bat. The Pirates got the last laugh with the win, but Dietrich went deep again in the eighth. He is hitting .278 with three home runs, eight RBI and five runs in eight games. All three of his bombs this season have come off Pirates pitching.

Dietrich is getting his first start of the season at second base on Tuesday night against the Brewers.

With Dietrich in the lineup, Jose Peraza moves back to shortstop and Jose Iglesias goes to the bench. The move was made to get an offensive upgrade for the Reds, who have struggled the last two games.
