Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Bryce Miller, 27-year-old right-hander for the Seattle Mariners, is being reinstated from the 15-day injured list after straining his left oblique in spring training. He made his season debut on Wednesday, May 15, 2026, against the Houston Astros. Miller completed four rehab starts across Triple-A Tacoma and High-A Everett, posting a 1.98 ERA with 14 strikeouts and 7 walks over 13.2 innings. The Mariners are implementing a six-man rotation initially, with potential for a piggyback arrangement with Luis Castillo. Miller's return addresses rotation struggles, as the Mariners' pitching staff ERA increased from 3.35 (first 20 games) to 4.42 (games 21-40).
