Mariners' Andres Munoz: Beginning throwing program

Munoz (elbow) has begun a throwing program, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Munoz threw off a mound in the middle of July and will continue to ramp up his work while rehabbing from Tommy John surgery. He is not expected to return to formal game action this season, though his progress bodes well for a potential return early in the 2022 campaign.
