Miller, D-backs await official MRI diagnosis

ATLANTA -- The D-backs will have to wait a little longer to get an official reading on Shelby Miller's results from Thursday's MRI.

Miller, who underwent Tommy John surgery in May 2017, was taken out of the D-backs' Wednesday night bout with the Rockies after allowing five runs in the first inning and with tightness in his right elbow. The D-backs' starter caught a flight back to Phoenix and met with team doctors before undergoing an MRI on Thursday.
