The Cubs signed Miller to a two-year, $2.5 million contract Friday, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller will finish his Tommy John and flexor surgery rehab with the Cubs in 2026 before joining their bullpen in 2027. The right-hander will be 36 at that point, but he was excellent in 2025 between the Diamondbacks and Brewers before getting injured, posting a 2.74 ERA and 54:15 K:BB over 46 frames while notching 10 saves.

Miller is likely to miss most, if not all, of the 2026 season after undergoing UCL and flexor tendon surgery Oct. 13, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller had been hopeful of a less invasive procedure that would give him a chance to return before the end of the 2026 campaign, but ultimately he's unlikely to pitch again until 2027. It's the second UCL repair for Miller, who had Tommy John surgery in May 2017. He's an impending free agent after posting a 2.74 ERA and 54:15 K:BB over 46 innings between the Diamondbacks and Brewers this season.

Miller is hopeful of avoiding a full UCL repair of his right elbow following a visit with Dr. Keith Meister in Texas, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller needs surgery, but a procedure that's less invasive than Tommy John surgery would give him a chance to return late in the 2026 season. The reliever collected a 2.74 ERA and 54:15 K:BB over 46 innings between the Diamondbacks and Brewers this season and will be a free agent this winter.

Miller will undergo surgery in the coming weeks to repair the torn UCL in his right elbow, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear whether it will be Tommy John surgery -- which would be Miller's second -- but even if it isn't there's a good chance he won't be ready to pitch again until 2027. The righty posted a 2.74 ERA and 54:15 K:BB over 46 innings between the Diamondbacks and Brewers this season and will be a free agent this offseason.

The Brewers placed Miller on the 60-day injured list Wednesday due to a right elbow UCL sprain.

EDGE Analysis

Miller suffered the injury during an appearance in Monday's 10-8 loss to the Phillies. According to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com, Miller acknowledged that he could require the second Tommy John surgery of his career to address the UCL injury, but even if he opts to treat the injury with rest and rehab, he won't be eligible to pitch again this season. Joel Payamps was recalled from Triple-A Nashville to take Miller's spot on the 40-man roster and in the bullpen.

Miller exited Monday's 10-8 loss to the Phillies early with a right elbow injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller felt something "pop" in his elbow, leading to an early departure, which certainly doesn't sound good. The right-hander may be set for an extended absence, but more information on his status will likely come in the near future.

Miller exited Wednesday's game against the Phillies in the top of eighth inning with an apparent injury, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller threw eight pitches in the top of the eighth inning, allowing one run on two hits, before the Brewers' trainer came out to the mound to examine the right-hander. Miller was removed from the game and replaced Rob Zastryzny. Milwaukee has an off day Tuesday before resuming its series with Philadelphia on Wednesday.

Miller (forearm) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Miller will make his Brewers debut when he gets into a game, as he's healthy for the first time since early July. The veteran reliever was traded from Arizona to Milwaukee on July 31. Before sustaining the forearm strain, Miller tallied a 1.98 ERA, 10 saves and eight holds over 36.1 innings for the Diamondbacks. Miller should be in contention for setup work, as Trevor Megill has been outstanding in the closing role.

The Brewers sent Miller (forearm) to Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday to begin a rehab assignment.

EDGE Analysis

The Brewers acquired Miller from the Diamondbacks at the trade deadline knowing he would still need some time to work his way back from a strained forearm. Miller has been out for nearly a month, so he'll probably need at least a couple rehab appearances before joining the Brewers' bullpen. The righty boasts a 1.98 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 40:11 K:BB over 36.1 frames this season while notching 10 saves.

The Diamondbacks traded Miller (forearm) to the Brewers on Thursday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller has been on the shelf since July 7 with a strained right forearm, but after turning in a 1.98 ERA and 0.96 WHIP in 36.1 innings with Arizona, he'll most likely take on a high-leverage role in Milwaukee's bullpen once healthy.
