Erik Miller Set to Return to Giants Bullpen on Saturday
San Francisco Giants left-handed reliever Erik Miller's (back) minor-league rehab appearance on Wednesday night went well, and he will be activated from the 15-day injured list when he's eligible to return on Saturday, according to Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports. Right-hander Caleb Kilian has emerged as the favorite for saves in San Fran of late and has a 1.40 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, two saves, and 19 strikeouts in his 19 1/3 innings pitched so far in 2026, but Miller could also be given some opportunities to earn saves for the Giants now that he's close to rejoining the major-league roster. Before going on the IL with a back ailment, Miller had allowed four earned runs on eight hits while walking six, striking out 17, and picking up his first two career saves in 12 relief appearances. The 28-year-old southpaw threw two scoreless innings with three punchouts in his two rehab outings with Triple-A Sacramento. Fantasy managers scrounging for saves in deeper leagues should consider picking Miller up this weekend. He's currently rostered in only 5% of Yahoo leagues.
