Injured Diamondbacks pitcher Shelby Miller has MRI sent to Dr. James Andrews

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said the team still is awaiting word on medical reports regarding starting pitcher Shelby Miller and the right-hander’s injured right arm.

MRI exams have been forwarded to a third surgeon, Dr. James Andrews, and it wasn’t clear on Wednesday afternoon if Andrews has had a chance to review them yet, Lovullo said.

“It’s not necessarily a third opinion,” Lovullo said before Wednesday’s game against the Padres. “It’s part of the plan that we had talked about all along where we were going to have this group look at it and come together and get as much information as we possibly could, and pass it along to Shelby and figure out what the best game plan is.
