Mon Mar 2518:02Wade Miley To Throw Simulated Game Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Wade Miley (groin, shoulder) will throw a simulated game on Wednesday in New York with three up-downs. If all goes well with that session, he will most likely move his rehab to Triple-A Nashville for a couple of minor-league rehab starts. Groin and shoulder injuries have limited the 37-year-old veteran southpaw during spring training, which will force him to open the year on the injured list. Miley might not be sidelined for long if he looks good in his minor-league rehab starts, but fantasy managers in mixed leagues should be looking for better upside arms for rotation depth. He has found a way to induce soft contact in his career, but with a career 7.0 K/9 mark in 13 big-league seasons, he's just not going to miss enough bats.

Thu Mar 2116:51Wade Miley Scratched On Thursday
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Wade Miley (groin) was scratched from Thursday night's Cactus League appearance versus the San Francisco Giants due to groin tightness. Miley will throw a bullpen session on Thursday without the up and downs instead and might try to pitch in a spring game this weekend. He said he was going to start the 2024 season on the injured list anyway because of shoulder issues, so he figured he wouldn't push it. With Miley sidelined to begin the season, either Joe Ross or Robert Gasser will likely fill in for the Brewers' starting rotation. Even when healthy, Miley should be avoided in mixed fantasy leagues. The soft-tossing 37-year-old southpaw just doesn't offer any upside in the strikeout department, and durability is also an issue.

Tue Mar 518:56Wade Miley Throws Bullpen Session
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that left-hander Wade Miley (shoulder) threw a bullpen session in camp on Tuesday morning. "I wouldn't count him out for the first week," Murphy said. Miley has been dealing with left-shoulder soreness in spring training and isn't a lock to be available for the first turns through the team's starting rotation to begin the regular season. The 37-year-old veteran southpaw is trending in the right direction, though, so even if he opens the year on the injured list, he could make his 2024 debut in April. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues should look to avoid the aging soft-tosser, though, as you should be able to find better upside starting rotation options at the end of your drafts.

Sat Mar 213:37Wade Miley Has Shoulder Soreness
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that left-hander Wade Miley (shoulder) is dealing with left-shoulder soreness in camp, which is the reason why the skipper said on Friday that Miley is "50-50" to be ready for Opening Day. "Played catch, played through it. Hasn't had any problem since," Murphy said. "We just want to go slow because of his history. Everything hurts on him. Happens when you're 50." Miley isn't 50, but he's 37 and should be of no interest to fantasy managers in mixed leagues in 2024, especially since he might not even be ready for the start of the season. The good news is Miley was able to play catch on Saturday. Miley has dealt with various arm injuries the last few years and relies on weak contact to get outs. At best, he'll be a matchup-based streamer in deep-mixed leagues when he's healthy.

Fri Mar 113:18Wade Miley "50-50" To Be Ready For Opening Day
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said on Friday morning that left-hander Wade Miley (undisclosed) is "50-50" to be ready for the start of the 2024 regular season. "We'll let you know more in about 10 days," Murphy said. It's unclear exactly what is wrong with Miley, but the soft-tossing southpaw may not be a part of Milwaukee's Opening Day rotation. The 37-year-old veteran has been slowed by elbow and shoulder injuries in recent seasons, so perhaps he's had another arm setback. Even if Miley was healthy, he wouldn't be very attractive to fantasy managers in mixed leagues. At best, he's a deep-league streaming option in favorable matchups, but his lack of strikeout upside keeps his fantasy floor low.

Mon Dec 4 202314:49Wade Miley Re-Signs With Brewers
The Milwaukee Brewers and left-hander Wade Miley have agreed to a one-year, $8.5 million deal to bring him back to the club for the 2024 season. The deal also includes a limited no-trade clause and a mutual option for the 2025 season. Miley spent the 2023 campaign in Milwaukee where he tossed a healthy 3.14 ERA across 23 starts. His peripheral metrics weren't as positive, however, as he also posted a 4.69 FIP, 5.04 SIERA, and a tiny 16.1% K%, all of which suggest regression could be on the horizon next season. Nonetheless, the veteran has long out-pitched his underlying metrics and has largely been a reliable starter since the 2018 season.

Sun Dec 3 202318:21Brewers Showing Interest In Wade Miley
The Milwaukee Brewers are reportedly showing interest in free agent starting pitcher Wade Miley. The left-hander declined his $10 million mutual option with the organization this offseason. Despite it, it appears Miley and the Brewers are interested in a reunion. The 37-year-old posted a 3.14 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, and 79/38 K/BB ratio across 120 1/3 innings (23 starts) with the Brewers last season. The Brewers could use the help after cutting ties with Brandon Woodruff and are rumored to be looking to trade ace pitcher Corbin Burnes. The addition of Miley could be a good thing for the Brewers rotation.

Sat Nov 4 202313:35Wade Miley Declines His Option For 2024
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Wade Miley declined his half of a mutual $10 million option for the 2024 season and will now become a free agent, according to a source. The 36-year-old southpaw went 9-4 with a strong 3.14 ERA (4.69 FIP), 1.14 WHIP, 38 walks and 79 strikeouts in 120 1/3 innings over 23 starts in 2023. He is open to returning to the Brewers in free agency but wants to test the open market first. Miley will turn 37 years old in November and was pretty fortunate to have such a low ERA given his 4.69 FIP and weak 5.9 strikeouts per nine innings. Miley will see if he can secure one more decent payday from an interested club as he nears the end of his career. The soft-tossing left-handed relies on inducing weak contact on the mound rather than racking up the strikeouts, so he's not all that intriguing in fantasy.

Sun Jul 30 202312:35Wade Miley To Rejoin Rotation Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Wade Miley (elbow) will come off the 15-day injured list and rejoin the team's starting rotation on Wednesday in a nice matchup against the Washington Nationals. Miley will be replacing right-hander Julio Teheran (hip), who was put on the injured list on Sunday. The 36-year-old southpaw will be returning from bone spurs in his left elbow, but he made a pretty quick recovery after receiving a platelet-rich plasma injection. The matchup against the Nats this week will certainly be intriguing for fantasy purposes, but also keep in mind that Miley didn't have any minor-league rehab starts to build his arm back up. There's a chance that he won't go very deep into Wednesday's game.

Sun Jul 30 202300:40Wade Miley "Feeling Great"
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley (elbow) stated he was "feeling great" after throwing three simulated innings on Friday. The 36-year-old was 6-2 with a 3.06 ERA and 46 strikeouts in 13 starts before an elbow issue put him out of commission. However, Miley hopes to return to the rotation when Milwaukee begins a three-game set against the Washington Nationals on Monday. Unfortunately, fantasy managers will need to wait for the official word before getting him back in the lineup.

Thu Jul 27 202308:41Wade Miley Hopeful To Return Saturday
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley (elbow) is hopeful that he can return from the injured list on Saturday, according to MLB.com. The 36-year-old veteran has missed time due to left-elbow discomfort, and he has yet to make a start in the second half. Through 13 appearances this season, Miley has pitched to a 3.06 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, and 16.7% strikeout rate with a 6-2 record. He only has value in deeper leagues considering his strikeout numbers, so fantasy owners can drop the former 2008 draft pick in standard formats no matter when he returns.

Mon Jul 17 202320:55Wade Miley Lands On Injured List Monday
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Wade Miley (elbow) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Monday, retroactive to July 14. Miley has been dealing with left-elbow discomfort over the past few days, which ultimately landed him on the injured list. The Brewers have yet to announce a corresponding move to take Miley's spot on the active roster. Miley has made 12 starts for the Brewers in 2023, posting a 5-2 record, 3.36 ERA, and 38 strikeouts spanning 61 2/3 innings of work.

Mon Jun 26 202314:16Wade Miley To Start Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Wade Miley (side) will make the start on Wednesday against the New York Mets. Miley won't end up missing a start after dealing with cramping in his right side in his last start on June 23 against the Cleveland Guardians, when he tossed six shutout innings with three strikeouts and no walks. The 36-year-old southpaw missed four weeks due to a left-lat strain but hasn't allowed a run in his last 11 innings covering two starts since returning from the injured list. He has made 10 starts overall this year and has a nice 2.91 ERA (4.31 FIP), 1.02 WHIP, 11 walks and 31 strikeouts in 52 2/3 innings. Miley isn't going to overwhelm anyone with his stuff or velocity, but he might be a decent streaming choice in deeper leagues against the struggling Mets this week.

Sat Jun 17 202313:38Wade Miley Activated From Injured List, Starting On Saturday
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley (lat) has been activated from the 15-day injured list and is starting on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Miley hit the IL in late May with a lat strain and was originally supposed to be out for 6-8 weeks but he progressed ahead of schedule in his rehab. He was pitching well before hitting the shelf as well, posting a 3.67 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and 24:9 K/BB ratio over 41 2/3 innings (eight starts). He's a solid streaming option on Saturday against the Pirates.

Tue Jun 6 202309:36Wade Miley's Rehab Assignment Scheduled For June 11
Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Wade Miley (lat) will make his first rehab start on June 11 with Double-A Biloxi, according to MLB.com. The veteran hurler has been on the shelf since mid-May after suffering a posterior serratus strain and was originally supposed to miss 6-8 weeks. However, Miley thinks there's a chance he could return to the Brewers after just one rehab appearance. The 36-year-old was putting up solid numbers before the injury, pitching to a 3.67 ERA and 1.13 WHIP with three victories over eight starts, but posted just a 14.0% strikeout rate. Fantasy managers should only roster Miley in deep leagues, as he'll continue to hurt the strikeout department once he's back.

Fri May 19 202318:43Wade Miley To Miss Significant Time
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley (lat) is expected to miss significant time after suffering an injury on Tuesday. The left-hander has been diagnosed with a posterior serratus strain and is expected to miss 6-8 weeks, according to manager Craig Counsell. It's a shame because the 36-year-old was having a fairly decent season. Before going down, Miley was posting 3.67 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 24/9 K/BB ratio over eight starts. Adrian Houser has been filling in the rotation and is expected to remain there with Miley sidelined.

Thu May 18 202309:42Wade Miley Goes On The Inujred List Wednesday
The Milwaukee Brewers placed starting pitcher Wade Miley (lat) on the injured list Wednesday after experiencing a strained left lat during his start on Tuesday. The left-hander was giving the club some solid work, posting a 3.67 ERA and 1.13 WHIP with three wins over eight starts, but his 14.0% strikeout rate limits his fantasy value. There's no word on who will take Miley's spot in the rotation, but the Brewers have a couple of options in Colin Rea and Janson Junk, both in Triple-A. Neither offers much value in any league, so fantasy managers should look to replace Miley elsewhere on the waiver wire.

Tue May 16 202322:01Wade Miley Leaves Tuesday's Start In The Second Inning
Milwaukee Brewers starter Wade Miley (lat) exited Tuesday's start against the St. Louis Cardinals prematurely after suffering a left lat strain, according to MLB.com. Prior to his removal, the 36-year-old allowed one run on a solo home run while walking one without any strikeouts across 1.2 innings. Over eight starts this year, Miley owns a solid 3-2 record, 3.67 ERA and 1.13 WHIP, but, like in the past, has struggled to get punchouts, striking out just 24 batters in 41.2 innings. There will be more news concerning the injury after Tuesday's game, but if he's forced to miss time, that doesn't change much in any fantasy league, considering the veteran's limited fantasy value.

Wed Jan 4 202318:33Wade Miley Agrees With Milwaukee
The Milwaukee Brewers agreed with free-agent left-hander Wade Miley on a one-year, $4.5 million contract on Wednesday, according to a source. Miley will have a chance to make $6 million through incentives. He'll be returning to the Brew Crew after spending the 2018 season with them, when he had a career-low 2.57 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 80 2/3 innings covering 16 starts. Due to injuries, the 36-year-old southpaw only appeared in nine games (eight starts) for the Chicago Cubs in 2022, going 2-2 with a 3.16 ERA (3.95 FIP), 1.22 WHIP and 17.6 percent strikeout rate. With better health, he could work at the back end of Milwaukee's starting rotation as an innings-eater or in a long-relief role, but either way, he'll have limited fantasy upside as he nears the end of his career.

Tue Sep 6 202217:01Wade Miley Activated And Starting Tuesday
The Chicago Cubs activated left-hander Wade Miley (shoulder) from the injured list on Tuesday and designated pitcher Luke Farrell for assignment in a corresponding move. Miley is returning to the team's starting rotation and will start on Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds. The 35-year-old veteran southpaw has made only four starts this year, but he's allowed only six earned runs on 15 hits while walking eight and striking out 12 in 19 innings. Miley doesn't bring much fantasy upside with his 7.1 career K/9, but he's returning to a nice matchup against Cincinnati and is worth a look as a streamer in deeper formats if you still need innings.
