Mariners send Nick Vincent to disabled list

The Seattle Mariners placed relief pitcher Nick Vincent on the 15-day disabled list with a middle back sprain.

What It Means:

The move paves the way for starter Wade Miley to return from his own disabled list stint. An immediate timetable for Vincent's return is not yet known.

Vincent had pitched well prior to the injury, turning in a 3.47 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 28.57 percent strikeout rate across 36 1/3 innings. Our algorithms project him to put up a 3.67 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and 23.00 percent strikeout rate over another 34 1/3 innings for the rest of the season.
