Bobby Miller's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Bobby Miller has been optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday. The 25-year-old has been awful this season, but the Dodgers decided to give him another chance against the Miami Marlins on Tuesday. That didn't go well as Miller gave up four runs over two innings of work in the loss. The right-hander has allowed 17 earned runs this month and increased his ERA to 8.52 after his latest outing. In a corresponding move, right-hander Joe Kelly has been activated from the 15-day injured list. He figures to resume his role as a late-inning reliever.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Bobby Miller (knee) said he's been dealing with a left-knee issue, which is what he tweaked in the second inning of his outing on Thursday night against the Baltimore Orioles at Dodger Stadium. Miller said he can manage his left knee the rest of the year. Despite battling a knee ailment, the 25-year-old made it through five innings in his start on Thursday against the O's and actually picked up just his second win of the year, allowing three earned runs on two hits (one homer) while walking three and striking out three. The former 29th overall pick in 2020 out of Louisville was demoted to the minors earlier this year after struggling in LA's starting rotation and he hasn't been much better since his return on Aug. 17, allowing 10 earned runs while walking four and fanning 13 in 15 2/3 innings over three starts. Rolling with an injured Miller down the stretch will be dicey for fantasy managers.

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Bobby Miller is expected to rejoin the big league roster on Saturday, according to manager Dave Roberts. The 26-year-old was optioned to the minors about a month ago to work on his mechanics but he was also dealing with a groin issue. The plan is for Tyler Glasnow to take the mound for Saturday's game. Roberts said that Miller could pitch out of the bullpen. He continued by saying anything is on the table for how Miller could be used. Miller was already barely an option in fantasy leagues, but a move to the pen would basically give him no value.
