Miller is on the injured list for the second time in a month with a troublesome elbow, leading some to wonder why he isn't just shutting it down and getting surgery. Speaking on Friday, general manager Justin Hollander addressed that question.

No change in the status of Ryan Bliss (torn bicep), Victor Robles (shoulder), and Gregory Santos (knee surgery), all of whom remain on their respective injury timelines. Santos, who is on a throwing program, is still tracking towards a July return, roughly.

Logan Gilbert, out since late April, is expected to start early next week when the Mariners host the Boston Red Sox for a three-game series.
