Bryce Miller Punches Out Six in Rehab Start on Friday
Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller (oblique) appears to be nearing a return to Seattle's starting rotation. The 27-year-old hurler looked good in his latest minor-league rehab start with High-A Everett on Friday night, going three shutout innings while giving up just one hit, walking one, and striking out six batters. Miller allowed just two baserunners and threw 35 of his 47 pitches for strikes in his second rehab appearance as he works his way back from an oblique injury that put him on the 15-day injured list before the start of the 2026 regular season. He still needs to build up his pitch count a bit more, but after another couple of rehab starts, he should be reinstated from the IL and rejoin the M's rotation in May. In his first rehab start with Triple-A Tacoma, Miller gave up three earned runs in 1 2/3 innings while walking one and striking out two. The former fourth-rounder in 2021 went 12-8 with a 2.94 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and 171 strikeouts in 2024 in a breakout campaign before posting an ERA over 5.00 and being limited to 18 starts last year due to injuries. Miller is only rostered in 27% of Yahoo leagues, but that number should go up considerably once he's closer to making his 2026 debut.
