The Mariners shuffled veterans on their roster this morning, placing RHP Carl Edwards Jr. on the 10-day IL with a right forearm strain. In a corresponding move, Seattle promoted RHP Bryan Shaw back from their alternate site in Tacoma. The move is obviously bad news for Edwards, who was hoping to reignite his career and reputation as an impact long reliever in 2020 with a healthy season. Edwards had only made five appearances in 4.2 innings, but he’d looked every bit the part thus far, perhaps benefitting from the extra few months of rehabilitation and looking sharper despite still-diminished velocity.
