Shelby Miller

Free agent pitcher Shelby Miller has agreed to a minor league deal with the Milwaukee Brewers, according to a report from MLB insider Ken Rosenthal. Miller was released by the Texas Rangers last week.

Fantasy Impact

Miller has an 8.59 ERA and a WHIP near 2.00 on the season, so he will have to pitch well enough in the minor leagues for the Brewers to consider calling him up to the big league squad. Miller had a few solid seasons early in his MLB career but has struggled to stay healthy since throwing more than 200 innings in 2015.

The Rangers released Miller two days after designating him for assignment.

Fantasy Impact

Miller's stint in the Lone Star State was an unmitigated disaster, as the 28-year-old right-hander posted an 8.59 ERA while surrendering eight home runs in just 44 innings with a nearly even strikeout-to-walk ratio.

Shelby Miller allowed eight runs on seven hits, two walks, and one strikeout through 1 2/3 innings pitched on Tuesday against Kansas City.

Fantasy Impact

Miller was beyond awful once again the loss, none of the eight runs he allowed came to errors or homers which makes the outing even more wild. He's got a 9.51 ERA and 2.11 WHIP, it's unknown how long he'll last in the rotation with these starts.

Shelby Miller allowed two runs on four hits, one walk, and six strikeouts through four innings pitched on Wednesday against the Pirates.

Fantasy Impact

Miller was fine in the outing but continues to not be worthy of a roster spot for teams. He's got a 7.48 ERA, next up is Kansas City.

Shelby Miller allowed four runs on four hits, two walks, and three strikeouts through 3 1/3 innings pitched on Wednesday against Pittsburgh.

Fantasy Impact

Miller had another very rough outing for the Rangers, he hasn't been able to get it going at all up to this point as he's recorded zero quality starts through six starts this year. He's got a 7.99 ERA, 2.03 WHIP, and 13 strikeouts now, he shouldn't be near fantasy radars.
