The Tigers placed Paredes on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a right hip strain.
Paredes had been withheld from the lineup the previous two days with what was described as a sore hip, but upon further evaluation, the Tigers reclassified the infielder's injury as a strain. The transaction is retroactive to Tuesday, so Paredes will first be eligible to return from the IL on July 31. Detroit called up Willi Castro from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move, and he and Harold Castro will likely share second base until either Paredes or Niko Goodrum (calf) is back in action.
