ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The Cincinnati Reds have placed Bronson Arroyo on the 10-day disabled list with a strained right shoulder, one day after the 40-year-old right-hander said there is a possibility his career might be over.
Cincinnati also put shortstop Zack Cozart on the 10-day DL Monday due to a strained right quadriceps.
Arroyo gave up five runs and seven hits in just three innings Sunday as the Reds lost 8-7 to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Arroyo (3-6) is attempting a comeback this season with his former team after missing 2½ seasons with arm and shoulder problems, including Tommy John surgery and a procedure on his shoulder. He said after Sunday’s outing, “Have I thought ‘This time might be my last time on the field?’ Yeah.”
“Now, it’s just a matter of seeing where this goes, to define the source of the pain, and really kind of figure out what’s in his best interest,” Cincinnati Reds manager Bryan Price said. “We haven’t even really got to the point to really talking about what the future holds for Bronson. We just realized that he does need to go on the DL, and we have time now to kind of reassess.”
Cozart is hitting .320 with nine homers and 33 RBIs in 58 games this season. The injury has slowed him for the past few weeks and was further aggravated while running to first Saturday.

Alaska teen dies after being attacked by bear during race
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A 16-year-old boy who was fatally mauled by a black bear during a weekend mountain race in Alaska reportedly called his brother while he was being chased by the animal in a rare predatory attack, officials said Monday.
Patrick Cooper of Anchorage was attacked Sunday afternoon after he got lost and veered off the trail during the juniors division of the Robert Spurr Memorial Hill Climb race south of Anchorage, race director Brad Precosky said.
State park staffers were scouring the area Monday looking for the bear, which ran off after it was shot by a ranger, according to state Fish and Game spokesman Ken Marsh. He said Sunday’s attack was believed to have been a rare predatory move, not a defensive action such as when a female bear will protect her cubs.
“It’s very unusual,” Marsh said of the mauling. “It’s sort of like someone being struck by lightning.”
