Wade Miley

Reds manager David Bell says that Wade Miley (shoulder) took a step back on Thursday and is more sore than anticipated.

Fantasy Impact

In other words, don't expect him to return this weekend. Miley is currently dealing with a strained shoulder and will be out a bit longer.

Wade Miley (shoulder), who has been out since August 27th, threw a bullpen session on Wednesday. Barring any setbacks Miley's return to the Reds is imminent. Look for them to update his status later in the week.

Fantasy Impact

Miley has a 6.57 ERA in 12 1/3 innings for the Reds this season. He is not a recommended add in 12-team standard redraft leagues at the moment.

Wade Miley pitched a simulated game at the Reds' alternate site on Friday and has a chance to join the club on their current road trip, per manager David Bell.

Fantasy Impact

Miley has been on the injured list since August 28th with a left shoulder sprain and will be eligible to come off the IL on September 7th at the earliest. The veteran left-hander has a 6.57 ERA, 1.78 WHIP over 12.1 innings this year.

The Reds placed LHP Wade Miley on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder sprain.

Fantasy Impact

Miley felt some tightness in his shoulder after tossing four scoreless innings on Thursday. It doesn't figure to be a long-term injury.

Wade Miley allowed one hit and one walk while striking out three across four scoreless innings in Thursday's 6-0 Game 2 start against the Brewers. He did not factor into the decision.

Fantasy Impact

Miley started Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader and tossed four scoreless innings. He didn't pitch deep enough into the game to qualify for the win. The 33-year-old has only reached the five inning mark just once this season. Miley owns a 6.57 ERA, 1.78 WHIP and 11 strikeouts across 12 1/3 innings in 2020. His next scheduled start is Friday against the Cubs.
