Erik Miller Injury: To begin throwing

Miller (elbow) will begin a throwing program Saturday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Miller was placed on the 15-day injured list July 5 and was projected to miss five weeks. The 27-year-old reliever will rehab at the Giants' complex in Arizona. If he abides by the five-week timeline, he'll likely be back in mid-August.
