Adleman (oblique) was placed on the 15-day disabled list Friday.
Adleman exited Thursday's start in the fourth inning due to what was eventually diagnosed as a strained left oblique. He was scheduled for an MRI on Friday, and the team has since determined that Adleman will require a stint on the DL. The Reds recalled outfielder Steve Selsky from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding move Friday.
