James Pazos … optioned to Triple-A?
That was among the roster moves the Seattle Mariners made Sunday morning, sending their most relied-on and effective lefty bullpen option to the minor leagues while activating Roenis Elias off the disabled list to start Sunday’s series finale against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
They also optioned infielder Gordon Beckham back to Tacoma and recalled right-hander Chasen Bradford.
But Pazos has continued to see a dip in his fastball velocity and in his past 5 1/3 innings pitched he had allowed six runs (three earned).
