Brad Miller Stats

Texas Rangers outfielder Brad Miller will sit on Sunday against Philadelphia Phillies left-handed starter Bailey Falter. Miller was the DH and was the No. 8 hitter in the lineup in the first two games of the season. Those games were against right-handers Aaron Nola and Zack Wheeler. Miller will likely sit against most lefties this season and doesn't have a strong grip on the DH spot against righties, either. He should only be owned in deepest of leagues or AL-Only

Texas Rangers outfielder Brad Miller, who hits left-handed, is expected to start in either left field or at designated hitter against right-handed pitchers in 2023. Miller dealt with several injuries last year, which likely contributed to his poor performance at the plate. The 33-year-old veteran slashed .212/.270/.320 with a .590 OPS, seven home runs, 32 RBI, 20 runs scored and four stolen bases in 241 plate appearances and 81 games in his first year in Texas. Six of his seven homers came against right-handers, though, and he's hit .243 with 106 of his 122 long balls in his career. Miller should have some usefulness in AL-only leagues if he's playing regularly against righties, but if he struggles early, the Rangers probably won't have a very long leash.

Texas Rangers first baseman Brad Miller remains on the bench on Friday against the Detroit Tigers. It will be Miller's third straight game starting on the bench for the Rangers. The 32-year-old veteran utility man has gone 8-for-33 (.242) with no home runs, three RBI, two runs scored and 11 strikeouts in 14 games this month. He'll take a seat against a left-hander in Tyler Alexander on Friday. In 79 games for Texas in 2022, Miller is slashing .212/.271/.323 with seven home runs, 32 RBI, 20 runs scored and four stolen bases as an option in much deeper fantasy leagues. Mark Mathias will serve as the designated hitter and will bat seventh against Alexander. Mathias has 31 plate appearances with the Rangers and Brewers this year, going 8-for-30 (.267) with two homers and 10 RBI.
