SP - Los Angeles Dodgers - IL15
Roster %
Eligibility
The Dodgers have placed Bobby Miller on the IL with right shoulder inflammation.
Fantasy Impact
Miller’s shoulder inflammation likely explains his struggles through his first three starts this season. The 25-year-old will likely undergo further testing to allow the Dodgers to establish a timetable for his recovery.
Over 4 innings, Miller's line—5 hits, 3 walks, and 2 earned runs—was hardly the stuff of legends, but his 4 strikeouts kept hope alive.
Fantasy Impact
With a season ERA now bloated to 5.40 and a WHIP that somehow remains a respectable 1.17 through three games, Miller will look to strive for consistency in his next outing.
In what can only be described as a forgettable outing, Bobby Miller was roughed up by the Chicago Cubs Friday, five runs on four hits while also walking two and striking out three in just 1 2/3 innings in a 9-7 loss.
Fantasy Impact
Miller was unable to find much success on the mound for the Dodgers Friday afternoon, as the Cubs batters had their way at the plate against the right-hander. The 25-year-old carries overpowering stuff that can result in high strikeout totals on the mound, offering fantasy managers a high-upside starting option every fifth day in lineups.
In what could only be described as a masterclass performance, Bobby Miller carved through the Cardinals' lineup with surgical precision in the Dodgers' 6-3 victory on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Over six innings, Miller allowed a mere two hits and one walk while striking out 11 batters, showcasing an elite level of control and power. This outing not only secured a win for the Dodgers but also set a high bar for Miller's season. Given this performance, the right-hander's stock is undoubtedly on the rise in all fantasy formats, but will be worth monitoring as Miller gets more starts under his belt early in the season.
Bobby Miller is scheduled to make his Cactus League debut on Tuesday against the White Sox.
Fantasy Impact
Miller is slated to open the season in the starting rotation for the Dodgers, who could end up running a six-man rotation. He posted a 3.76 ERA across 22 starts last season as a rookie, showing flashes of the upside he possesses.
