Mariners pitcher Matt Brash faces setback in lat injury recovery
Summary

Seattle Mariners reliever Matt Brash has been temporarily shut down from throwing after experiencing persistent lat tightness following recent bullpen sessions. General manager Justin Hollander confirmed that the right-hander felt discomfort during the recovery phase despite feeling fine on flat ground. Brash, who has been sidelined since June 10, is undergoing an MRI to assess the injury. The team has opted to pause his progression to prevent further damage, leaving his return to the active roster uncertain. In addition to the status of Brash, the club announced that Nick Davila is out for the season with a suspected rib injury and Brennen Davis has been placed on the 60-day injured list.
