Bryce Miller Fantasy Stats

Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller (oblique, side) will go through a touch-and-feel bullpen session in camp on Sunday, according to Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. It will be Miller's first time on a mound since he received a platelet-rich plasma injection last weekend. He has been throwing off flat ground the last few days. The 27-year-old can't afford any other setbacks if he wants to be ready for Opening Day later this month. Miller's 2025 season was derailed by elbow issues that landed him on the injured list two separate times. The former fourth-rounder in 2021 out of Texas A&M never recovered, going 4-6 with a career-worst 5.68 ERA (5.17 FIP) and 1.41 WHIP with 74 strikeouts and 34 walks in 90 1/3 innings pitched over a career-low 18 starts. There's bounce-back potential for Miller if he's healthy in 2026, but in addition to his oblique/side issue, he could eventually need a procedure for a bone spur in his elbow.

Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller (side) has been battling soreness in his left side in camp, and an MRI exam showed inflammation, according to Shannon Drayer. Miller, who has dealt with this same issue in the past, had a platelet-rich plasma injection and is being shut down for five days. Drayer adds that it's "very precautionary." If it were the regular season, Miller "probably wouldn't have reported the soreness." The 27-year-old reported soreness after his Cactus League outing on Thursday against the Cleveland Guardians. As long as Miller doesn't have any further setbacks with his side, he still has a chance to be ready for Opening Day in late March. Miller went on the injured list two separate times in 2025 due to elbow issues and made a career-low 18 starts, posting a career-worst 5.68 ERA, 1.41 WHIP, and 74:34 K:BB in 90 1/3 innings. It's possible that he could eventually need surgery for the bone spur in his right elbow, making Miller a risk/reward late-round consideration in 2026 drafts for rotation depth.

The Seattle Times' Ryan Divish reports that Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller (elbow) has no pain in his right elbow and has two improved breaking pitches this spring. Miller is "excited to pitch a full season" and to help the Mariners "go even further" in 2026. The 27-year-old did not need surgery to have bone spurs in his elbow removed despite going on the injured list two separate times last year due to elbow problems. It's great news, but Miller goes into the 2026 campaign with a little more risk. Miller struggled in his third year in the big leagues, most likely due to his elbow issues, going 4-6 with a career-worst 5.68 ERA (5.17 FIP) and 1.41 WHIP with 74 strikeouts and 34 walks in 90 1/3 innings over 18 starts. It was promising that he had a 2.51 ERA in the playoffs in a small sample size, as well as the fact that he's feeling 100% in camp. Miller will slowly start to rise up draft boards as a bounce-back candidate if he can avoid further elbow injuries.

Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller (elbow) said he didn't experience any discomfort in the offseason, and his pitching "elbow feels 100%," according to Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. After extended consultation with Dr. Keith Meister, it was decided that Miller would not need a procedure to remove the loose bone spurs in his right elbow. The 27-year-old was limited to a career-low 18 starts in 2025 due to two separate stints on the injured list with elbow injuries, and he finished the regular season with a 4-6 record, career-worst 5.68 ERA (5.17 FIP), and 1.41 WHIP with 74 strikeouts and 34 walks in 90 1/3 innings pitched. Miller's elbow issues will make fantasy managers think twice about rostering him in 2026, but if he can stay healthy, a bounce-back should be in store. He broke out in 2024 with a 2.94 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and 171 K's in 31 starts, and he looked good in the postseason with a 2.51 ERA over 14 1/3 innings. RotoBaller has Miller ranked as the No. 67 fantasy starting pitcher.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Bryce Miller is looking for a bounce-back 2026 season, and he reported on X that he's added 12 pounds this offseason and gained a little velocity. Miller went a solid 12-8 in 31 starts in 2024, with a 2.49 ERA and 3.58 FIP. He battled multiple injuries in 2025, making 18 starts and pitching about half the innings of the previous season, while going a disappointing 4-6 with a 5.68 ERA and a 5.17 FIP. Miller is still expected to be a key part of the team's rotation in 2026, and potentially, the extra bulk will make him more durable and give him some extra velocity to be more effective this season. He'll definitely be a pitcher to watch early in spring training to see if he can get things going in the right direction.

The Seattle Mariners announced they have signed starting pitcher Bryce Miller to a one-year deal, avoiding arbitration. According to Adam Jude of the Seattle Times, Miller had asked for $2.625 million and the Mariners filed at $2.25 million. They ultimately met right in the middle, as his new deal will pay him $2,437,500 in 2026. Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports that the deal also includes a club option for 2027. The option is worth $6.075 million and comes with a $15,000 buyout, bringing the guaranteed amount of his new deal to $2,452,500. The 27-year-old is coming off a career-worst season, during which he amassed a 5.17 FIP and exactly 0.0 fWAR, despite making 18 starts. He tossed a career-low 90.1 big-league innings while allowing 7.37 K/9, 3.39 BB/9, and an alarming 1.69 HR/9. Miller enters 2026 as the No. 5 arm in a strong, young pitching rotation that also includes Bryan Woo, Logan Gilbert, Luis Castillo, and George Kirby. He ranks as the #68 starting pitcher in RotoBaller's latest draft rankings for fantasy baseball.

Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller (elbow) said he doesn't expect to need surgery for a right-elbow injury that kept him out for half of the 2025 season. The same can be said for right-handed starters George Kirby (shoulder) and Logan Gilbert (elbow), who also missed around two months each in the first half of the season. Miller added that he has a follow-up exam with Dr. Keith Meister early this offseason to determine his next steps for a small bone spur in his right elbow. The 27-year-old had a platelet-rich plasma injection in his elbow in early June and didn't return to the rotation until Aug. 19, making eight starts over the final eight weeks of the regular season. Miller may receive a cortisone injection early in the offseason, and then maybe another one at the start of spring training. But barring a setback, Miller should be ready for the start of 2026. Fantasy managers shouldn't forget that he ranked among the American League leaders in 2024 with a 2.94 ERA and 180 1/3 innings over 31 starts.

Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller will make the start in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series on Friday in Seattle against the Toronto Blue Jays, according to manager Dan Wilson. Right-hander Bryan Woo will be available out of the bullpen if Miller needs help early on. The Mariners will be hoping for a repeat of Miller's Game 1 performance, when he allowed only one run in six innings on short rest for a win. This time, the 27-year-old will be on regular rest while going up against Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman. Miller dealt with injuries in the regular season and made only 18 starts, but he's been better in two postseason starts. In a no-decision in Game 4 of the AL Division Series against the Tigers, he gave up two earned runs with no walks and two K's in 4 1/3 frames. Miller faced Toronto just once in the regular season on May 11 and was hit hard, surrendering seven earned runs on eight hits (one homer) while walking two and fanning three in five innings.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Bryce Miller has been named the Game 1 starter for the ALCS against the Toronto Blue Jays. The team has made it official that Miller will take the ball for the first game of the series on Sunday. Miller tossed 4.1 innings on Wednesday, so he'll be pitching on short rest. The right-hander did only throw 44 pitches during his latest outing, but figures to still have an abbreviated start. It's unclear who will follow Miller, but he'll at least get the first chance at it during Sunday's contest.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Bryce Miller (elbow) will be activated off the 15-day injured list and start against the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday, according to manager Dan Wilson. This is great news as Miller has been sidelined since early June due to right elbow inflammation. He looked solid enough during his latest rehab start to clear him for this outing. It has been a struggle to keep Miller healthy and on the mound this season. He holds a 5.73 ERA, 1.54 WHIP, and a 39/23 K/BB ratio across 10 starts this season. Miller figures to be limited during his first outing back on the mound. He won't be an ideal streaming option against the Phillies, but should have good long term value, assuming he can stay healthy.
