Bounces back with clean outing Miller fired a perfect sixth inning during which he recorded a strikeout in a loss to the Phillies on Sunday.
Impact The left-hander had allowed four earned runs on seven hits and four walks over two innings across his previous three appearances, so Sunday's outing was a welcome respite for both Miller and fantasy managers. Miller has interspersed three perfect efforts overall among four appearances in which he's allowed at least one run, a mixed bag that leaves him with an unsightly 7.50 ERA and 2.33 WHIP across six innings thus far this season.

Mixed bag in '21 debut Miller recorded three strikeouts but also allowed an earned run on three hits and hit a batter over one inning of relief in a loss to the Reds on Saturday.
Impact As his final line indicates, Miller's 2021 debut had a bit of everything mixed in. The big left-hander threw 25 pitches overall in a busy frame, getting 16 of those offerings into the strike zone. Miller projects for his usual seventh- and eighth-inning role this season after pitching to a 5.79 ERA and 1.50 WHIP across 4.2 innings in five spring appearances.

Impact Miller also conceded a stolen base, while one of the two runs he allowed came on a sacrifice fly. Despite the ugly line, Zachary Silver of MLB.com reports the combination of Miller's well-established track record and the fact that his actual performance looked better than the final numbers left manager Mike Shildt satisfied with the veteran lefty's first Grapefruit League appearance. "Ball was going out pretty well, some good sliders, some close misses," Shildt said. "It was a good box to check, get him out there and get his feet in the dirt."

Progresses to live hitters Miller faced live hitters for the first time this spring Monday, Zachary Silver of MLB.com reports.
Impact The veteran left-hander arrived in spring training a few days later than the majority of the Cardinals' pitchers, and he's therefore in the process of getting up to speed. Miller reported feeling pleased with his first encounter against live bats as he begins the ramp-up process for another season of a likely heavy eighth-inning workload with some ninth-inning opportunities potentially sprinkled in.

Makes delayed arrival to camp Miller arrived at spring training over the weekend, a few days behind other pitchers, due to personal reasons, Zachary Silver of MLB.com reports.
Impact The veteran southpaw will be given time to work into his routine now that he's on site, with manager Mike Shildt noting there's essentially no concern about Miller getting up to speed, given his veteran status. Miller is coming off his best season since 2017, having forged a 2.77 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 16:5 K:BB across 13 innings over 16 appearances in 2020, adding four saves in five chances and a pair of holds. He should eventually settle into his usual eighth-inning role in the coming season, but there's a chance he sees the occasional ninth-inning opportunity early if the Cardinals opt to ease Jordan Hicks back into the full-time closer role.
