Jun 5 2025The Cubs reinstated Miller (hip) from the 60-day injured list Thursday and designated him for assignment, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller has been on the injured list all season due to a left hip impingement. He began a rehab assignment in the minors April 15 and has since posted a 2.77 ERA and 1.69 WHIP across 13 innings at Triple-A Iowa. Despite his strong performance in the minors, the Cubs will push the 29-year-old off their 40-man roster and expose him to the other 29 clubs. Miller finished last season with a dominant 2.32 ERA and 0.81 WHIP across 62 innings between Chicago and Seattle, so it's likely he attracts plenty of interest on the waiver wire.
May 13 2025The Cubs transferred Miller (hip) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller has been out all season with a left hip impingement. He's allowed five runs (four earned) over 8.2 innings on a rehab assignment and will be eligible for activation May 20.
Apr 17 2025Miller (hip) struck out two over a scoreless inning during a rehab appearance with Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Cubs placed Miller on the 15-day injured list March 25 due to a left hip impingement, an injury that had been affecting his delivery while pitching. Now that he's resumed pitching at Triple-A, Miller has seemingly moved past the injury, though he'll still likely need to make another appearance or two in the minors before the Cubs activate him from the IL. Miller excelled while working as a setup man and in middle relief between stops with the Mariners and Cubs in 2024, registering a 2.32 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 54:11 K:BB to go with 13 holds, five wins and one save over 62 innings.
Mar 26 2025The Cubs placed Miller on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a left hip impingement. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller will be eligible for activation April 5, but it's not clear whether he might be ready by then. The right-handed reliever posted a 2.15 ERA and 42:10 K:BB over 50.1 innings for the Cubs last season and is pegged for middle relief once healthy.
Mar 22 2025Miller will begin the season on the injured list with a left hip impingement, Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller had a tough time finding his footing on the mound this spring, finishing the Cactus League schedule with nine earned runs allowed over just 4.2 innings, though he managed to strike out seven batters in the process. He'll head to the IL to begin the 2025 campaign and may be relegated to a middle-relief role in the Cubs' bullpen once healthy.
Feb 5 2025With the Cubs trading for Ryan Brasier on Wednesday, per Jeff Passan of ESPN.com, and adding Caleb Thielbar, Eli Morgan and Ryan Pressly earlier in the offseason, Miller may see less high-leverage work in 2025. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Porter Hodge was closing games for the Cubs at the end of last season, but Miller was seeing important setup work ahead of him. The veteran Pressly now figures to get the first shot at the closer role, which would presumably push Hodge into eighth inning work. Brasier, Morgan and Thielbar are also all experienced relievers with successful track records, giving manager Craig Counsell some options to choose from toward the end of games. Miller was effective for the Cubs in 2024, posting a 2.15 ERA across 50.1 innings of relief, so he figures to still have a key role even with the added competition, though he may get knocked down a few rungs in the bullpen.
Sep 29 2024Miller (5-1) worked around a hit in a scoreless two-thirds of an inning to earn the win Saturday against the Reds. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Chicago starter Kyle Hendricks was stellar through 7.1 innings as he kept Cincinnati off the board, but the Cubs turned to Miller to get through the top of the eighth. The righty delivered and then was set up for the win when the Cubs scored all three of their runs in the bottom of the eighth. Miller has been excellent for Chicago this season with a 2.32 ERA and 0.81 WHIP across 62 innings of relief, and his five wins are the most on the team among current members of the bullpen.
Sep 15 2024Miller struck out two without allowing a baserunner over a scoreless inning to earn the save in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Rockies. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Keegan Thompson pitched a perfect eighth inning but let three straight batters reach to begin the ninth. Miller then entered the game, allowing one inherited runner to score but successfully escaping the danger to earn his first career save. He likely got the save chance because Porter Hodge took a blown save in Saturday's contest. Miller has pitched to a 2.37 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 69:28 K:BB while adding 12 holds through through 57 innings this season between the Cubs and the Mariners.
Sep 3 2024Miller allowed three runs on two hits and a walk across an inning of relief in Tuesday's 5-0 loss to the Pirates. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Chicago already trailed 2-0 when Miller came on in the seventh inning, so the righty didn't take the loss, though he didn't help his team's cause, either. Miller allowed a three-run bomb to Jared Triolo, who has just a .599 OPS this season, to cap off the rough outing. This is the second time in his last three appearances that Miller has allowed three runs, but he still has a strong 2.61 ERA overall, so it's probably not time to hit the panic button quite yet.
Aug 31 2024Miller allowed three runs on two hits and a walk while retiring only a single batter in relief during Friday's 7-6 win over the Nationals. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was tasked with the bottom of the ninth inning in a non-save situation with the Cubs up 7-3. However, things quickly went awry for the righty, and Chicago eventually turned to Drew Smyly and then Keegan Thompson to record the last two outs of the frame, with the latter picking up the save. Miller saw his ERA climb from 1.64 to 2.17 in the process. His previous success suggests he'll bounce back quickly from the rough outing, as this was the first time he allowed a run since late July, breaking a streak of 11 straight scoreless appearances.
Aug 17 2024Miller (4-1) tossed a scoreless 10th inning to earn the win out of the bullpen Friday against the Blue Jays. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After Hector Neris blew the save by allowing three runs in the ninth inning, Miller picked Chicago up with a much better 10th, needing just five pitches to shut the door on Toronto. The righty has been solid this season, as he now has a 1.83 ERA and 0.77 WHIP across 44.1 innings for the Cubs and Mariners. If Neris gets pulled from the closer role due to his middling performance, Miller could be a candidate to see save opportunities, though Porter Hodge is probably ahead of him right now in the bullpen pecking order.
Aug 3 2024Miller (3-1) tossed 1.2 scoreless innings of relief to earn the win Friday against the Cardinals. He struck out one. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Chicago starter Javier Assad only lasted four innings in this one, which opened the door for Miller to pick up his third win in relief this year. The righty has emerged as a nice bullpen option for the Cubs, posting a 2.06 ERA, 0.76 WHIP and 36 strikeouts across 39.1 innings. He's still likely behind both Hector Neris and Porter Hodge in the pecking order for saves, though with Mark Leiter traded to New York, Miller could at least see a bit more high-leverage work moving forward.
Jun 12 2024Miller (1-0) tossed 1.1 scoreless innings with two strikeouts to earn the win in Wednesday's 4-3 victory over the Rays. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller came over to Chicago via a trade from Seattle on May 13, and while he's been effective across nine appearances with the Cubs, this was his first win with his new team. The righty now has a 2.01 ERA for the season, which includes a stellar 0.84 ERA over 10.2 innings with Chicago. Miller has limited fantasy upside as a middle reliever, though he's been excellent in his role.
May 13 2024Miller was traded from the Mariners to the Cubs on Monday in exchange for Jake Slaughter, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was designated for assignment three days ago by the Mariners, and he'll now pack his bags for Chicago following Monday's transaction. He's surrendered four runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out 12 over 11.2 innings so far this season as a reliever and will immediately join the big-league club, per Passan.
May 10 2024The Mariners designated Miller for assignment Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The move corresponds with right-hander Bryan Woo (elbow) being activated from the 15-day IL. Since having his contract selected from Triple-A Tacoma on April 8, Miller has appeared in nine games for the Mariners, posting a 3.09 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 12:1 K:BB over 11.2 frames. He should draw interest from teams looking to add a right-hander to the bullpen.
Apr 9 2024Miller, promoted from Triple-A Tacoma earlier in the day, fired two perfect innings during which he recorded two strikeouts in a loss to the Blue Jays on Monday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was exceedingly sharp, firing 18 of 21 pitches for strikes after taking over for starter Luis Castillo in the sixth inning. The right-hander's pristine showing Tuesday was essentially an extension of the impressive body of work he put together during Cactus League play, and Miller could conceivably carve out a long-term spot for himself in the Mariners bullpen if he continues to distinguish himself while helping fill in for Cody Bolton (illness) and Collin Snider (knee) during their respective injured list stints.
Apr 8 2024The Mariners selected Miller's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Monday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller will provide some bullpen protection with Cody Bolton (medical issue) and Collin Snyder (knee) out. He holds a career 6.97 ERA over 16 appearances at the big-league level.
Mar 9 2024Miller, who has yet to allow an earned run through three Cactus League appearances, has drawn praise from manager Scott Servais for his mechanics and performance, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was most recently on the mound Friday against the Cubs, firing two perfect innings during which he recorded a strikeout. The 28-year-old posted a 1-0 record, 4.70 ERA and 1.24 WHIP across 10 appearances for the Mets, Dodgers and Brewers in 2023, and he's working with a four-pitch arsenal that features a fastball and slider the Mariners particularly like. Miller could break camp as a multi-inning relief option if he continues impressing, and Servais notes the right-hander compares favorably in certainly ways to a recent effective Mariners late-inning option. "I really liked what I saw out of Miller." Servais said. "He has a lot of release point characteristics, pitch characteristics that Paul Sewald had as far as how he does it."
Nov 10 2023Miller signed a minor-league contract Friday with the Mariners, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller elected to become a free agent in October after being pushed off the Dodgers' 40-man roster. The 28-year-old right-hander has mostly struggled in his time at the major-league level, but he posted a decent 3.50 ERA and 50:15 K:BB over 43.2 innings this past season in Triple-A.
Aug 30 2023Miller was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Wednesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller had just been claimed back off waivers from the Mets on Sunday and worked two scoreless innings of relief in the Dodgers' win over the Diamondbacks on Tuesday, but Los Angeles needed to clear out a roster spot Wednesday for the return of Ryan Pepiot.
Aug 27 2023The Dodgers claimed Miller off waivers from the Mets on Sunday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller will begin his second stint in the Dodgers organization in this month along, as Los Angeles had previously lost him to New York in a waiver claim on Aug. 4. The Mets eventually booted Miller off their 40-man roster a few weeks later, but the right-hander will get another look in the Los Angeles bullpen while the Dodgers currently have eight relievers on the injured list. Since Miller has already been optioned to the minors five times this season between stops with the Brewers, Mets and Dodgers, he'll need to be added to the Dodgers' 26-man active roster. Los Angeles already cleared a spot for Miller on the 40-man roster by transferring Tony Gonsolin (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL.
Aug 23 2023Miller was designated for assignment by the Mets on Wednesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: This move clears out a 40-man roster spot for Sean Reid-Foley, who has been selected to New York's bullpen ahead of Wednesday's series finale in Atlanta. Miller has posted a 5.40 ERA and 8:6 K:BB in 13.1 major-league innings this season between the Brewers, Dodgers and Mets.
Aug 15 2023The Mets optioned Miller to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller earned a win in relief Monday against the Pirates, but he threw 31 pitches during that appearance and wasn't going to be available for a bit. Jose Butto will take his place in the Mets' bullpen ahead of Tuesday's game versus Pittsburgh.
Aug 12 2023The Mets recalled Miller from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller holds a 6.35 ERA and 1.41 WHIP through 11.1 innings in the majors this season, and he will now be called upon for his Mets debut. Miller pitched in just one game with Triple-A Syracuse and threw 1.1 scoreless frames while striking out two batters. Denyi Reyes was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.
Aug 4 2023The Mets claimed Miller off waivers from the Dodgers on Friday and optioned him to Triple-A Syracuse. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller will now join his third team in the last month after being DFA'd by the Brewers in early July and the Dodgers on Wednesday. Miller has a 3.45 ERA and 1.40 WHIP through 28.2 innings in Triple-A this season and will serve as organizational depth with the Mets.
Jul 30 2023The Dodgers optioned Miller to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller lost his spot on the 26-man roster to right-hander Lance Lynn, whom the Dodgers acquired in a trade with the White Sox on Friday. During his brief stay with Los Angeles, Miller made one two-inning appearance out of the bullpen, giving up two earned runs on three hits and one walk.
Jul 26 2023Miller was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Dodgers acquired Miller from the Brewers earlier this month, but he'll be up with the big club for the first time since the trade. He tossed three scoreless innings during his time with Oklahoma City.
Jul 12 2023The Dodgers acquired Miller from the Brewers on Wednesday in exchange for cash consideration, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller had been designated for assignment after posting a 5.79 ERA over 9.1 innings this season in the majors. He'll report to Triple-A Oklahoma City for the time being.
Jul 8 2023The Brewers designated Miller for assignment Saturday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller gave up one run on a hit and two walks over two-thirds of an inning Friday, and now he'll be pushed off the 40-man roster after accumulating a 5.79 ERA and 1.29 WHIP through 9.1 innings in the majors. Miller's minor-league numbers (3.86 ERA, 1.47 WHIP) make it possible he's claimed by another team off waivers, but his ceiling remains as an MLB depth piece.
Jul 5 2023Milwaukee recalled Miller from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller will return to the Brewers' bullpen ahead of Wednesday night's game against the Cubs. The righty carries a 5.19 ERA through 8.2 major-league innings (six relief appearances) this year.
Jun 17 2023The Brewers optioned Miller to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was brought up from Triple-A on June 9 after injuries to Bennett Sousa (shoulder) and Jake Cousins (shoulder), and he will return to Nashville with the return of Wade Miley (lat) on Saturday. Miller made two appearances during his latest stint with the Brewers, throwing two scoreless innings while striking out two batters and walking one.
Jun 9 2023The Brewers recalled Miller from Triple-A Nashville on Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller has bounced between Milwaukee and Nashville all season, and this time comes as a result of Bennett Sousa (shoulder) and Jake Cousins (shoulder) both landing on the 15-day injured list. Miller holds a 6.75 ERA and 1.20 WHIP through 6.2 innings with the Brewers this season and is unlikely to pitch in high-leverage situations.
May 26 2023Milwaukee optioned Miller to Triple-A Nashville on Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was lit up for four earned runs over two innings of relief in the Brewers' loss to the Giants on Thursday. Ethan Small will take his spot in the bullpen Friday.
May 22 2023Miller was recalled from Triple-A Nashville by the Brewers on Monday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller has been sharp in his chances with the big club this season, allowing one run over 4.2 innings. He figures to slide into a middle relief role.
May 7 2023Miller was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was called up from Nashville in late April and appeared in three games during his time with the Brewers, allowing one run on three hits with two strikeouts and no walks across 4.2 innings. He has a 1.42 ERA over 12.2 frames at Triple-A this year and should rejoin the big club at some point later in the season.
Mar 26 2023The Brewers optioned Miller to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller will retain a spot on the 40-man roster heading into Opening Day, but he'll fall short on winning a spot in Milwaukee's season-opening bullpen. The 28-year-old covered 10.2 innings at the big-league level with the Rangers in 2022, giving up 13 earned runs on 16 hits and eight walks.
Oct 3 2022Miller was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Monday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller made his final start of the season Sunday against the Angels, allowing seven runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out five in four innings to take the loss. He posted a 10.97 ERA and 2.25 WHIP in 10.2 innings over four appearances (two starts) in the majors this year and isn't guaranteed a major-league role to begin the 2023 campaign.
Oct 2 2022Miller (1-2) allowed seven runs on nine hits, three walks and a hit batter while striking out five over four innings to take the loss versus the Angels on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was shaky from the get-go, allowing six of the seven runs on his line in the first inning. Mike Trout tacked on a solo home run in the fourth. Miller posted a 10.97 ERA, 2.25 WHIP and 8:8 K:BB across 10.2 major-league innings this year. The 27-year-old isn't scheduled for another start in 2022, and he hasn't shown much to suggest he'll be in contention for a big-league role to begin 2023.
Sep 27 2022Miller (1-1) earned the win during Tuesday's 5-0 victory over Seattle, allowing two hits and one walk while striking out three in 3.2 innings. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller followed opener Jesus Tinoco with 3.2 scoreless innings, the only trouble coming in the fourth after the first two Mariners singled, but he was able to retire the next three batters to escape the jam. The 27-year-old fired 42 of 66 pitches for strikes with seven of the swinging variety and rebounded nicely from a six-run clunker during his most recent Major League appearance, a short start June 15. In three appearances, Miller has surrendered six earned runs on 12 baserunners with three strikeouts across 6.2 innings.
Sep 26 2022Miller will be recalled to pitch Tuesday against the Mariners, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller has thrown three innings in the majors this season, allowing six runs in the process. He will likely get a decent amount of work Tuesday behind Jesus Tinoco, who will serve as Texas' opener.
Sep 12 2022Miller was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Monday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After Miller was selected from Triple-A on Sunday, he will head back to Round Rock on Monday without appearing in a game for the Rangers. The move frees up a roster spot for fellow pitcher Jon Gray (oblique) to return from the 15-day injured list.
Sep 11 2022Miller's contract was selected from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller has not been particularly sharp in recent weeks, but the Rangers will give him another shot to show what he can do at the top level. He started in more than half his appearances with Round Rock this season, but unless the Rangers elect to use a six-man rotation he will likely provide depth in the bullpen.
Jun 15 2022Miller was returned to Triple-A Round Rock on Wednesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was charged with the loss during Wednesday's game against the Astros, as he gave up six runs on four hits and two walks while failing to strike out a batter in two-thirds of an inning. The right-hander will head back to the minors for now but should be a candidate to serve as a spot starter later in the year.
Jun 10 2022Miller joined the Rangers' big-league roster Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller and Jesus Tinoco joined the team as replacement players after Glenn Otto and Mitch Garver landed on the COVID-19 injured list. Miller has worked as both a starter and a reliever for Triple-A Round Rock, though he won't be making Otto's scheduled start Friday against the White Sox, as the team will instead go with a bullpen game.
Jun 20 2021Miller cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was designated for assignment by Texas on Friday, and he'll remain in the organization after going through waivers unclaimed. The right-hander was also on the Cubs' 40-man roster earlier this season, though he hasn't seen major-league action with either club in 2021.
May 5 2021Miller was reinstated from the COVID-19 injured list and optioned to the alternate training site Wednesday, Tony Andracki of Marquee Sports Network reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller had been on the COVID-19 IL since the start of the regular season, but he'll now build up in Arizona before returning to game action. Once Miller is built up, it's not yet clear whether he'll pitch in the majors or with Triple-A Iowa.
Mar 12 2021Miller was assigned to minor-league camp Friday, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller had at best an outside chance at breaking camp in the big leagues, as he did make his debut last season but threw just five innings. The Cubs expect to rotate players through their fifth starter spot, so Miller could still earn starts later this year if he looks good in the minors.
Sep 5 2020Miller was recalled by the Cubs for Game 2 of the team's doubleheader with the Cardinals on Saturday, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was called up for the second time this season in order to give the Cubs another out of the bullpen for Saturday's nightcap.
Aug 17 2020Miller will start the second game of Monday's doubleheader against the Cardinals, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller was recalled as the Cubs' 29th man and will make his major-league debut for the second game of Monday's twin bill. Adbert Alzolay was initially expected to make the start, but he suffered a forearm bruise when he was hit by a ball at the alternate training site. Manager David Ross said that Miller had been throwing the ball well in South Bend, and he'll step in as a result. In 11 starts with Triple-A Iowa last year, Miller struggled with a 7.58 ERA and 1.80 ERA over 48.2 innings.
Jul 23 2020Miller was not included on the Cubs' 30-man Opening Day roster. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller is on the Cubs' 40-man roster, though he had been working out at the team's alternate site in South Bend during summer camp and was not a serious candidate to make the Opening Day roster. The 24-year-old righty will look to continue his development after advancing to Triple-A for the first time in his career last year.
Mar 6 2020Miller was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Miller made 15 starts for Double-A Tennessee last season and turned in a solid 2.56 ERA but struggled with a 7.58 ERA in 11 starts at Triple-A. The 24-year-old will get a chance to perform better at Triple-A and offers organizational depth for the Cubs.
Nov 20 2019Miller was added to the Cubs' 40-man roster Wednesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The move protects the 24-year-old from being selected during the Rule 5 draft. Miller started the 2019 campaign at Double-A Tennesse but was promoted to Triple-A Iowa in July, but he struggled at Triple-A with a 7.58 ERA, 1.80 WHIP and 43:25 K:BB over 48.2 innings (11 starts).
