Mariners RHP Bryce Miller (elbow) heading back to IL
Manager Dan Wilson confirmed the news after Monday's 8-4 loss in 11 innings to the Arizona Diamondbacks.
"It's the same issue as he had the last time. The cortisone shot wasn't as helpful as we had hoped," Wilson said, per the Seattle Times.
Miller, 26, came off the injured list on May 31 and made two starts. He allowed five runs on six hits in five innings in his most recent effort, a 5-4 loss to the Los Angeles Angels last Friday.
Miller is 2-5 with a 5.73 ERA through 10 starts in his third season with Seattle. He is 22-20 with a 3.82 ERA in 66 career appearances (all starts).
The Mariners recalled right-hander Logan Evans, 24, from Triple-A Tacoma to start Tuesday's game against Arizona, with right-hander Bryan Woo's start pushed back to Wednesday.

Michael Phelps hits out at ‘broken' USA Swimming
Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympian of all time with 23 gold medals and 28 in total, has called out the 'poor leadership' with USA Swimming and demanded an overhaul of the 'broken system' for US swimmers. In a lengthy statement posted to Instagram, Phelps argued that 'cracks in the system' at USA Swimming have grown over the last nine years, since his retirement, which has resulted in less success with fewer avenues for athletes to develop. Phelps also revealed that he and previous Olympians had sent a letter of their concerns to USA Swimming earlier this year. Whilst admitting he is grateful for what swimming has given to him, Phelps also called out a culture were it was expected athletes would 'stay quiet and to keep the peace'. The 40-year-old has called for an independent review of USA Swimming's Board of Directors and has offered his services to improve the sport from competitive to grassroots level. His statement reads: 'First, I must be clear that I have the utmost respect for the U.S. swimmers that competed at World Championships. My criticism is in no way directed at them – I know how hard they work and how honoured they are to represent the US National Team. My criticism is about the system, its leadership, and how it's failing. 'There have always been cracks in the system but in the last nine years, I've seen those cracks grow. In 2016, I had the honour to be part of a US swim team in Rio that was arguably the most successful in the sport's history and we won 57% of the medals we had the opportunity to win. Fast forward eight years to Paris, where Team USA won only 44% of the medals they had the opportunity to win in the pool, the lowest percentage the sport had seen since the 1988 Olympics. 'I've asked myself what's changed in our sport and the answer is clear… this isn't on the athletes as they continue to do the best they can with what they've been given. This is on the leadership of USA Swimming. Poor leadership trickles down and can impact an organisation at every level. 'I spent most of my life inside a system that is supposed to support athletes. I gave it my everything, but I often felt that my voice went unheard. I was told to be grateful for the chance to compete and that it was more important to stay quiet and keep the peace. 'I spoke up earlier this year when I sent a letter to USA Swimming. It was also shared with the United States Olympic & Paraympic Committee. It addressed many of my frustrations with the current state of the sport and was signed and supported by former Olympic medalists, world record holders, members of the coaching community, and current and previous members of USA Swimming. That letter seemed to fall on deaf ears. No one really wants to talk about how broken USA Swimming has become... 'Money is a factor. But poor operational controls and weak leadership are a cornerstone of the sport's problems. I've watched too many teammates struggle to compete in a sport they love without the support they need. I've also seen the sport struggle to return its membership numbers to pre-pandemic levels, and I'm done pretending this system works just because it produces medals... 'Swimming to me was always about more that just medals – it's supposed to be an environment that builds champions in and out of the pool. 'As a Dad to four young boys, it pains me to say that I'm not sure if I'd want my sons to be a part of this sport at a competitive level. Yes, swimming changed my life, but it also caused a lot of heartache, and its current state makes me both sad and angry. I want to see this sport flourish and I want to be a part of the solution. I've always said that I wanted to change the sport of swimming in the U.S. and that sentiment still holds true... 'I still care and I'm not ready to give up. I don't have all the answers but I know this: we need accountability. We need transparency. We need athlete voices at the centre, not in the margins. We need systemic change.'

O's, after first walk-off win of year, seek series victory vs. M's
August 14 - If the Baltimore Orioles aren't going to produce much on offense, at least some timely hits can come in handy. They will look for a few more key clutch hits in the series finale against the visiting Seattle Mariners on Thursday afternoon. The Orioles didn't score in the first 15 innings of the series, but they pulled out a 4-3 victory on Wednesday thanks to Jackson Holliday's two-out RBI double in the bottom of the ninth. It was Baltimore's first walk-off victory of the season. "Just enjoy being a kid and playing baseball and it's a whole lot of fun," Holliday said. In the decisive game of the three-game series, Baltimore will try to extend its streak of series victories against Seattle to six. The Orioles have won only three of their past nine games, but uplifting results like Wednesday's can fuel excitement. "This game will beat you down," Holliday said. "Luckily, I have really great teammates to lean on. I don't think we've played the baseball that we would like to, but we have a great group of guys that pick each other up." While Baltimore's offensive woes are well-documented, the Mariners have been unusually quiet with the bats in the current series. They have a total of four runs and no homers. Manager Dan Wilson normally likes how the Mariners produce runs in a variety of ways -- with or without long balls. "We've talked about if you can do both, you're going to have a consistent offense," Wilson said. Catcher Cal Raleigh, the big-league leader with 45 homers, believes the Mariners have enough sources on offense. "That's what having a deep lineup does," said Raleigh, who is 0-for-8 in the series. Right-hander Logan Evans (6-4, 4.36 ERA) will start for the Mariners on Thursday, looking to extend a personal two-game winning streak. The rookie has three wins in his past four outings despite compiling a 5.85 ERA in that span. Evans will be opposing the Orioles for the first time. Baltimore's Thursday starter, Tomoyuki Sugano (9-5, 4.24 ERA), has won his past three decisions. The rookie right-hander didn't allow a home run in his past two starts, his longest such streak of the season. Sugano notched a June 3 victory at Seattle when he permitted one run on five hits in seven innings. The run came on a homer by Rowdy Tellez, who is no longer with the Mariners. Bullpen issues have been troubling the Orioles recently. Yennier Cano and Keegan Akin combined to allow two ninth-inning runs on Wednesday, blowing a 3-1 lead, but they were bailed out by the run in the bottom of the frame. "We've got to figure out how to get the ninth inning solved," Baltimore interim manager Tony Mansolino said. "It's a very unique inning and it changes emotions and feelings." Orioles left fielder Colton Cowser is eligible to be reinstated from the concussion list on Thursday, but he won't be activated for the game. "I don't see it being too long," Mansolino said. "Still going through concussion protocol, but I think in the near future we'll see him here in a major league game." --Field Level Media
