Introducing splitter in '24 Miller added a splitter to his repertoire this offseason, Brandon Gustafson of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.

Impact Miller picked up some valuable experience last season beginning with his May 2 MLB debut, finishing the 2023 campaign with an 8-7 record, 4.32 ERA and 1.14 WHIP across 25 starts. The right-hander's fastball clocked in at an impressive 95.1 mph as well, and while he primarily relied on his four-seam fastball and a sinker/two-seamer as a rookie, he decided to add the splitter after seeing rotation mates Logan Gilbert and George Kirby enjoy plenty of success with it last season. "I thought it was something that would be really good for how I throw and for what I needed," Miller said. " ... It took me a month or two just to find a grip that I was comfortable with and one that I was able to get consistent shapes with."

Falters in fourth inning Miller (8-7) allowed four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out four over four innings, taking the loss Wednesday versus the Astros.

Impact Miller was solid through three innings, but he gave up a solo shot to Yordan Alvarez and a three-run home run to Mauricio Dubon in the fourth. Miller has faded toward the end of the campaign, allowing 15 runs over his last 18.2 innings, including four homers over his last two starts. He's likely done for the regular season with a 4.32 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 119:26 K:BB through 131.1 innings over 25 starts in his rookie year.

Roughed up by Rangers Miller (8-6) allowed six runs on six hits and a walk over 4.1 innings Friday, striking out two and taking a loss against Texas.

Impact Most of the damage against Miller came in the first two innings when he allowed a solo shot to Corey Seager and a three-run homer to Evan Carter. Miller had given up just one home run over his previous eight starts. During that stretch, he posted a strong 2.98 ERA and 38:7 K:BB over 42.1 frames. Miller's season ERA climbed to 4.17 through 127.1 innings. He's currently lined up for a home matchup with the Astros next week.

Strong outing Saturday Miller allowed four hits and a walk while striking out four over 5.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Saturday.

Impact This was Miller's sixth scoreless outing of the year and his second since the start of August. He was solid, throwing 54 of 86 pitches for strikes, but he's now gone five starts without a win. The rookie right-hander is at a 3.88 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 113:24 K:BB through 123 innings over 23 starts this season. Miller is projected to make his next start on the road versus the Rangers in what will be a key matchup in the AL wild-card race.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Falls to Rays Miller (8-5) took the loss Sunday, allowing five runs on nine hits and a walk over five innings in a 6-3 loss against the Rays. He struck out seven.

Impact Tampa got to Miller early Sunday, scoring three runs in the first inning, eventually handing the rookie right-hander his first loss since Aug. 1. Miller hadn't allowed more than three earned runs in any of his previous six starts, working to a 2.53 ERA in that span. Overall, his ERA now sits at 4.05 with a 1.11 WHIP and 109:23 K:BB across 117.2 innings this season. Miller will look to right the ship in his next outing, currently scheduled as a home matchup with the Dodgers.

One earned run in no-decision Miller did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing one run on seven hits and one walk over five innings against Cincinnati. He struck out two.

Impact Miller's only blemish came on a run-scoring double in the third, and despite exiting with a 5-1 lead, the rookie right-hander settled for an unfortunate no-decision as Seattle's bullpen failed to preserve the lead. The 25-year-old has endured some rough patches in his first big-league season, but Tuesday marked Miller's sixth consecutive start allowing three or fewer earned runs. In 32 innings during that stretch, he has posted a 2.53 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 27:5 K:BB, but has just one win to show for it. His next outing is tentatively scheduled to take place in Tampa Bay over the weekend.

Settles for quality start Miller came away with a no-decision Wednesday in the Mariners' 5-4 victory over the A's, giving up three runs on seven hits over six innings. He struck out five without walking a b...

Impact A Lawrence Butler two-run homer in the second inning helped put Seattle in an early hole, but Miller shut down the Oakland offense the rest of the way and exited the game after 94 pitches (63 strikes) with the score tied 3-3. The rookie right-hander has two quality starts in his last three outings, but his last one before that came June 18 as he's had trouble completing six innings consistently. Despite the bumps in the road, Miller will take a respectable 3.93 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 100:21 K:BB through 107.2 innings into his next start, which is likely to come next week in Cincinnati.

Short outing Friday Miller allowed three runs on six hits and a walk while striking out six over four innings, taking a no-decision Friday versus the Royals.

Impact Miller was fairly sharp, throwing 62 of 83 pitches for strikes, but the Royals were able to make some solid contact against him. This was the shortest of his eight starts since the All-Star break, and just the third time in that span he's given up three or more runs. The rookie right-hander is now at a 3.90 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 95:21 K:BB through 101.2 innings over 19 starts. He's projected to make his next appearance at home in another favorable matchup against the Athletics.

Impressive in win Miller (8-4) earned the win Friday, allowing two hits and one walk over 6.1 scoreless innings against Houston. He struck out two.

Impact It was the first quality start for Miller since June 18, but the third consecutive start in which he's allowed one or fewer earned runs. Miller was efficient in tossing 82 pitches while working into the seventh but was pulled with one out in the inning following an error by shortstop Jose Caballero. The Mariners bullpen prevented any more damage and preserved the win for the rookie right-hander. Miller is projected to next take the Hill on the road in Chicago in a matchup against the White Sox.

Solid in no-decision Miller allowed two runs (one earned) on five hits and two walks while striking out two over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Orioles on Sunday.

Impact Miller held his own against a tough team, but came away without a win for the third start in a row. Since the All-Star break, he's yet to complete six innings in any of his six starts, allowing 16 runs (15 earned) over 32.1 innings in that span. The rookie right-hander is at a 4.04 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 87:19 K:BB through 91.1 innings over 17 starts this season. Miller is projected to face the Astros on the road in his next outing.

Dominant against Angels Miller yielded one run on five hits over five innings in Sunday's win over the Angels. He struck out 10 and did not factor in the decision.

Impact Miller allowed a run in the first inning but retired 14 of the last 16 batters he faced. He reached double-digit strikeouts for the first time since his MLB debut May 2 and set forced a career-high 22 swinging strikes. It was a very encouraging performance after Miller had been tagged with six runs in each of his last two starts. The right-handed rookie will carry a 4.20 ERA into his next appearance, which is currently projected to be at home against the Orioles.
