The Arizona Diamondbacks reinstated right-hander Shelby Miller from the 60-day disabled list prior to Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres.
Arizona also put first baseman-outfielder Christian Walker (facial fractures) on the 60-day disabled list.
Miller had been on the disabled list since July 12 after his pitching elbow became inflamed after a start against the Colorado Rockies the previous day.
Miller was 0-4 with an 11.40 ERA in four starts for the Diamondbacks before the elbow flared up. He returned from Tommy John surgery on June 25 for his first major league appearance in 14 months.
Miller is 37-53 with a 3.84 ERA in 130 career appearances (124 starts) with the St. Louis Cardinals (2012-14), Atlanta Braves (2015) and Diamondbacks (2016-18).
Walker suffered his facial fractures on Monday when he was hit in the face by a pitch from Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Kenta Maeda. He batted .163 with three home runs and six RBIs in 37 games for Arizona this season.
