Mariners Place Brash on IL, Recall Simpson

0:00It's May 2nd. From first pitch to the final out, this is MLB News today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Seattle Mariners just placed reliever Matt Brash on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his right late muscle. The moves retroactive to Thursday, so he can't return before May 15th. They recalled lefty Josh Simpson from AAA at Tacoma to fill the spot. Brash won't throw for 3-5 days, then they'll ease him back. Mid news is the MRI show no structural damage, and it's his first full season after Tommy John's surgery. He's been lights out with a 0.00ERA in 14 outings, but the team's playing it's super conservative. Manager Dan Wilson now has three lefty relievers with Simpson, who's off to a solid start in the minors, one run in 9 and a third innings. Meanwhile, third baseman Brynn and Donovan's rehab got pushed. People do two games at AA Arkansas starting Tuesday, eyeing activation, May 8th in, Chicago.

1:01Right-hander Bryce Miller threw four scoreless innings in his latest minor league start, hitting 98.8 miles per hour, and has one. More rehab outing Wednesday. Outfielder Victor Robles starts his assignment Sunday at Tacoma for at least seven days, while Carlos Vargas had a mild setback in Miles, Master Boney, targets rehab in three weeks. These tweaks keep the Mariners cautious with their pitching staff, but the core pieces are trending right-expect rash and the crew backbuilding. Momentum soon.
