As the Diamondbacks await word on the severity of Shelby Miller’s elbow injury, they took their first step toward replacing him in the rotation – at least in the short term – by announcing right-hander Zack Godley will be promoted from Triple-A Reno to start on Wednesday night against the San Diego Padres.
And while that decision means right-hander Archie Bradley will be sticking in his current role in the bullpen, the Diamondbacks say the move is less an indication of how they view Bradley in the big picture and more about his readiness to make a start this week.
