Good news on the elbow front

MARINERS

Sounds like decent news about Felix Hernandez. According to Fox Sports Northwest on the pregame show, the injury to his right elbow is minor, he won't throw for five days and then be reexamined. But it looks like, right now, he may miss just one start.

It seems Felix did the right thing last night walking off the mound, saving himself the risk of further injury.
