Mon Apr 15 | 09:18 | Bobby Miller Hopeful To Throw In 5-7 Days |
The Los Angeles Dodgers and right-hander Bobby Miller (shoulder) are hopeful he can begin throwing again within the next 5-7 days. If so, he could be back relatively quickly as he wouldn't need to completely build up from scratch. The 25-year-old began his 2024 season with six shutout innings with 11 strikeouts in a win over the Cardinals but has since yielded seven earned runs with seven strikeouts and five walks across only 5 2/3 innings across his last two outings. Nonetheless, he still owns a 3.14 SIERA and a 24% K-BB% on the young season and is a must-stash in any and all formats, especially since it appears he could be back sooner than later. |

Sat Apr 13 | 22:44 | Bobby Miller Lands On IL With Shoulder Inflammation |
The Los Angeles Dodgers placed right-hander Bobby Miller (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation. The move is retroactive to April 11. Miller's injury is "not severe," and surgery is unnecessary. Miller has struggled this season, posting a 5.40 ERA, 1.46 WHIP, and 18 strikeouts over 11 2/3 innings. The 23-year-old will miss at least the 15-day minimum, but expect the Dodgers to be cautious with their young starter. The Dodgers have recalled Nick Ramirez and J.P. Feyereisen and placed Miller and Connor Brogdon on the injured list in a corresponding move. Miller was expected to start against the Washington Nationals next week, but it's unclear who will replace him in the rotation. |

Sat Mar 16 | 12:32 | Bobby Miller To Start Exhibition Game In Korea On Monday |
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that right-hander Bobby Miller will start the team's second exhibition game in Korea on Monday against the Korean national team after the team goes with a bullpen game on Sunday versus the Kiwoom Heroes of the Korean Baseball Organization. The 24-year-old is on track to make his regular season debut against the St. Louis Cardinals on March 28 after Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Tyler Glasnow take the hill for the two-game series in Korea against the San Diego Padres on March 20-21. The former 29th overall pick by LA in 2020 out of Louisville really impressed in his rookie season in 2023 with a 3.76 ERA and 1.10 WHIP while walking 32 and striking out 119 in his first 22 starts. Miller has elite velocity and six different pitches to work with. He's ranked as RotoBaller's No. 22 fantasy starter in just his second MLB campaign. |

Wed Feb 28 | 19:03 | Bobby Miller Gives Up A Run In Spring Debut |
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Bobby Miller allowed back-to-back doubles to the Chicago White Sox in his Cactus League debut on Tuesday, but he eventually settled down and allowed only the two hits and a run while striking out one and walking none in his two innings of work. "I thought Bobby threw the ball well," manager Dave Roberts said. The Dodgers and fantasy managers are counting on Miller to take a step forward in 2024 after a strong rookie year that saw him post a 0.78 ERA through his first four major-league starts. The 24-year-old finished with an 11-4 record, 3.76 ERA (3.51 FIP) and 1.10 WHIP in 22 starts. Not only does Miller have elite velocity, but he can fool batters with six different pitches. He'll have a high price as a low-end No. 2/high-end No. 3 starter in fantasy drafts this spring. |

Tue Oct 10 2023 | 00:55 | Bobby Miller Takes Loss In Postseason Debut Start |
Los Angeles Dodgers rookie starting pitcher Bobby Miller did not last long in National League Division Series Game 2's 4-2 loss to the Diamondbacks. The 24-year-old pitched just 1 2/3 innings, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks with one strikeout. Miller was successful overall in his first big-league regular season, going 11-4 with a 3.76 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, and 23.6% strikeout rate in 22 starts and 124 1/3 IP. However, it is not that surprising that he was kept on a short leash with such little overall experience in a game of this magnitude. |

Thu Oct 5 2023 | 22:57 | Bobby Miller Lined Up For Game 2 Against Arizona |
Los Angeles Dodgers rookie right-hander Bobby Miller is in line to start Game 2 of the National League Division Series against the Arizona Diamondbacks in LA on Monday. Veteran right-hander Lance Lynn is in play to start Game 3. Lefty Clayton Kershaw is kicking off the series on the mound for the Blue on Saturday. Miller was impressive in his first major-league season in 2023, going 11-4 with a 3.76 ERA (3.51 FIP), 1.10 WHIP, 32 walks and 119 strikeouts in 124 1/3 innings over 22 starts. The 24-year-old closed out the regular season strong, too, giving up just seven earned runs while walking four and striking out 27 in 22 2/3 innings over four starts. Miller allowed four earned runs while walking two and fanning 10 in 12 innings in his two starts against Arizona in the regular season. |

Wed Aug 23 2023 | 09:01 | Bobby Miller's Next Start Pushed Back |
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Bobby Miller will not pitch on Sunday against the Boston Red Sox, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register. Instead, manager Dave Roberts will give him an extra day of rest, and he'll likely pitch on Monday against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Miller has been productive during his rookie season, pitching to a 3.86 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and 22.2% strikeout rate to go along with a 7-3 record over 15 starts. There's no word yet on who will start on Sunday now, so fantasy managers should stay tuned. |

Tue Aug 22 2023 | 14:35 | Bobby Miller Aiming To Stay Hot Tuesday |
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Bobby Miller will look to stay on a roll Tuesday night when he takes the ball for a road start against the Cleveland Guardians. The 24-year-old has tossed 15 2/3 innings of two-run ball over his last three starts and hasn't allowed more than three earned runs in each of his last six outings on the season. The consistent stretch has seen the rookie's ERA drop to 3.70 across 14 starts while he also sports a quality 3.48 FIP, 4.16 SIERA, and a 15.4% K-BB% in his 75 1/3 innings of work with the Dodgers. Miller has a nice opportunity to stay hot Tuesday night against a Guardians offense that ranks 21st with a .308 wOBA versus right-handed pitching this season. |

Thu Jul 20 2023 | 16:00 | Bobby Miller Slated To Start Saturday |
Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed rookie Bobby Miller (knee) is scheduled to make his next start on Saturday on the road against the Texas Rangers. Miller made it only 4 2/3 innings in his last start against the New York Mets on July 16 due to right-knee discomfort, but the injury wasn't serious enough to cause him to be skipped in the rotation. The 24-year-old gave up just two earned runs while striking out 23 in his first four big-league starts (23 innings), but since then he's allowed 21 earned runs on 30 hits while walking nine and striking out 24 in 25 2/3 frames over five starts. The strikeouts have been nice, but Miller will be a risky streamer on the road against one of the best hitting clubs in the big leagues this weekend. |

Mon Jul 17 2023 | 00:48 | Bobby Miller Feels Some Knee Discomfort During Sunday Start |
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Bobby Miller felt some discomfort in his right knee during his start on Sunday against the New York Mets. Miller was pulled in the fifth inning after a visit from manager Dave Martinez and a trainer. After the game, Martinez said the move to the bullpen had nothing to do with Miller's knee, and Miller confirmed that he is all good and wanted to stay in the game to get out of the inning. The young righty went 4 innings before being pulled, surrendering one run while striking out five. It sounds like this is a minor issue that shouldn't prevent the rookie from making his next scheduled start. |

Sat Jun 10 2023 | 19:46 | Bobby Miller Carries On Scintillating Start |
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Bobby Miller hurled six scoreless innings against the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday. The 24-year-old struck out seven batters and collected his third win of the campaign in the team's 9-0 pummeling of Philadelphia. Having already faced stiff tests via the Atlanta Braves, New York Yankees, and now these Phillies, Miller has passed with flying colors each time out so far. The No. 2 Dodgers prospect has only allowed two runs with 23 punchouts through his first 23 innings for a sublime 0.78 ERA this year. Miller is showcasing the upside to act as a difference-making fantasy force in Los Angeles' injury-ruined rotation. The flame-throwing rookie is lined up to face the ordinary San Francisco Giants lineup sometime next weekend. |

Mon Jun 5 2023 | 09:56 | Bobby Miller Tosses Six Scoreless Frames |
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher came ready to play during Sunday's matchup versus the New York Yankees. The right-hander put together a fantastic performance against a tough lineup. He threw six scoreless innings, allowing one hit, while striking out seven batters along the way. Miller is 2-0 with a 1.06 ERA, 0.76 WHIP and a 16/4 K/BB across his first three starts in the big leagues. The expectation is that he's going to cool down, but regardless he needs to be rostered in all mixed leagues right now. |

Tue May 30 2023 | 09:23 | Bobby Miller To Get The Ball Again On Sunday |
Los Angeles Dodgers rookie hurler Bobby Miller tossed another gem on Monday against the Washington Nationals, going six innings, allowing one run on four hits and a walk, and striking out four, earning his second win of the season in as many starts. He now owns a 1.64 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, and 21.4% strikeout rate. According to J.P. Hoornstra of SportsNet LA, Miller will get another chance on Sunday, starting against the New York Yankees. It'll be a good test for the 24-year-old, who was the club's second-best prospect before his promotion, as per MLB Pipeline. Manager Dave Roberts hasn't confirmed if Miller will be a mainstay in the rotation this season, but if he keeps pitching this well, he might not have a choice. |

Wed May 24 2023 | 09:44 | Gavin Stone, Bobby Miller To Remain In The Rotation |
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts announced after Tuesday's 8-1 win over the Atlanta Braves that right-handers Gavin Stone and Bobby Miller will stay in the rotation for the time being, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register. The former has pitched in two games so far this season, posting an ugly 10.13 ERA, 2.50 WHIP, 4.7% strikeout rate, and 16.3% walk rate over eight innings, while the latter made his Major League debut on Tuesday, going five frames and allowing one run on four hits and a walk while striking out five. The club has been hindered by injuries, losing Julio Urias (hamstring) and Dustin May (forearm) recently to injury, and is still without Walker Buehler (elbow) for a while. Fantasy managers looking to target a starting pitcher should lean towards Miller, who is rated as the club's second-best prospect according to MLB.com, and should hold off on Miller until he shows some positive results. |

Wed May 24 2023 | 00:36 | Bobby Miller Earns Win In First Career Start |
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitching prospect Bobby Miller earned the win in Tuesday's 8-1 game against the Braves. Making his big-league debut, Miller pitched five innings, allowing one run on four hits and a walk with five strikeouts. It was an impressive showing against a tough lineup, and the 24-year-old may have another opportunity to start against the Nationals next week with the Dodgers dealing with rotation injuries. Miller has not pitched particularly well with Triple-A Oklahoma City this season, but he is the organization's top pitching prospect per MLB.com. Fantasy managers may not be ready to throw him into their lineups right away, but they may have to try to pick him up now given his strong first impression. |

Sun May 21 2023 | 12:34 | Dodgers Call Up Bobby Miller |
The Los Angeles Dodgers called up right-handed pitching prospect Bobby Miller from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, according to sources. The team's top pitching prospect and No. 19 overall, according to MLB Pipeline, will make his major-league debut on Tuesday night against the Atlanta Braves. The Dodgers are in need of rotation help with both left-hander Julio Urias (hamstring) and righty Dustin May (forearm) on the injured list. Miller missed the first few weeks of the minor-league season with shoulder soreness, and he had a shaky 5.65 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 12 strikeouts in 14 1/3 innings for Oklahoma City before his call-up. Still, the 24-year-old's upside as a front-line starter in the big leagues makes him an immediate candidate for a waiver-wire pickup now that he's in LA. |

Thu May 18 2023 | 11:45 | Bobby Miller Rebounds With Quality Start |
Los Angeles Dodgers pitching prospect Bobby Miller has struggled to start the season for Triple-A Oklahoma, but he put in his best start yet, going six innings deep, striking out six, and allowing one run. Miller's elite high-90s fastball was on full display, generating five whiffs and averaging a velocity of 99.5 mph. Through three starts prior, he had an 8.64 ERA, 15% strikeout rate, and 12.5% walk rate in eight-and-a-third innings. If the Dodgers' top pitching prospect can go on a run of quality starts, he will be the first to get a call-up to join their star-studded major-league rotation. |

Fri Apr 28 2023 | 12:15 | Bobby Miller Expected To Debut On Friday |
Los Angeles Dodgers pitching prospect Bobby Miller (shoulder) is expected to make his season debut for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday. Miller suffered right shoulder soreness towards the end of Spring Training, but appears healthy and ready to go for his debut. Amongst the many top prospects for a loaded Dodgers farm system, Miller may have the best stuff of any pitcher. The 2020 first-rounder has excelled throughout his minor league career and throws a four-seam fastball that can hit triple-digits. Splitting time between Double-A and Triple-A in 2022, Miller recorded 145 strikeouts in 112 1/3 innings. With immense upside and a franchise that can get the best out of their players, Miller should be monitored and even stashed in redraft leagues. Dynasty managers should already be rostering the talented 24-year-old. |

Tue Apr 4 2023 | 12:39 | Ryan Pepiot Could Resume Throwing, Bobby Miller Building Up |
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Ryan Pepiot (oblique) could start throwing again as soon as next week, with his oblique injury not believed to be serious. Meanwhile, pitching prospect Bobby Miller (shoulder) remains in Arizona and is building up his stamina in extended spring training after he was limited by shoulder soreness at the start of camp. He was able to throw an inning on Saturday and will continue building up from there. Pepiot was slated to open the year in the Opening Day rotation, but he instead landed on the 15-day injured list, paving the way for Michael Grove to begin the year in LA's rotation. The 25-year-old could be ready to make his 2023 debut by late April, but Tony Gonsolin (ankle) could also be back by then as well. Miller is the team's No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and figures to make his big-league debut this year. |

Wed Mar 15 2023 | 12:37 | Bobby Miller Reassigned By Dodgers |
Los Angeles Dodgers top pitching prospect Bobby Miller has been reassigned to minor league camp. Miller, 23, was in camp with the Dodgers, but didn't make an appearance in the Cactus League. The right-hander has shown high velocities with both a four seam and two seam fastball and also mixes it up with a plus slider and changeup. This past season between Double-A and Triple-A, Miller went 7-7 with a 4.25 ERA and 145 strikeouts in 112 1/3 innings. With starting pitchers Noah Syndergaard and Tony Gonsolin both being injury prone, it wouldn't be a surprise at all if Miller makes his debut in 2023. Dynasty managers should already be rostering the right-hander and he makes for an exciting option in redraft leagues when he makes it to the show. |
