The Brewers placed Miley on the 15-day injured list Monday with left elbow inflammation.
EDGE Analysis
Miley got a late start to this season because of a shoulder problem and he missed time last season with elbow and lat issues. The veteran left-hander has often shown an ability to bounce back quickly from arm-related injuries, but he indicated Monday that this is a different feeling than he's had in the past, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Miley will undergo imaging Tuesday, at which point more should be known regarding how much time he might miss. Tobias Myers was called up from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move and seems likely to start in Miley's place Tuesday in Pittsburgh.

Miley said Friday that he expects to make his next scheduled start despite taking a comebacker off his left knee during his outing Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miley was hit by a 108-mph line drive during the first inning of Tuesday's loss and remained in the game for only two more innings. However, it seems the veteran southpaw was able to escape the incident with minimal damage. He's surrendered four earned runs across seven innings this year while striking out two batters and walking four, and he's lined up to start again Tuesday versus the Pirates.

Miley (0-1) took the loss Tuesday, allowing four runs (three earned) on four hits with two walks over three innings against San Diego. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
Miley was struck in the leg by a Manny Machado comebacker during the first inning and was met on the mound by the Brewers training staff twice following the incident. However, he remained in the game and finished out three full innings on 66 pitches. All four runs scored during Miley's outing came during the first frame, highlighted by a three-run home run by Ha-Seong Kim. While Miley is currently projected for a Monday start at Pittsburgh, fantasy managers should monitor Miley's health in the coming days.

MIley did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's win over the Reds, allowing one run on one hit and two walks over four innings.
EDGE Analysis
Miley was solid in his return from the 15-day-injured list (shoulder), allowing just one hit over his four innings of work while going 1-2-3 through Cincinnati's lineup in two of those frames. On the downside, the veteran lefty did issue two walks over that stretch while also hitting Jeimer Candelario with a pitch with two outs in the fourth. Miley threw just 52 pitches and should continue building up his workload next week when the Brewers host the Padres in Milwaukee.

The Brewers reinstated Miley (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start Wednesday against the Reds in Cincinnati.
EDGE Analysis
Reliever Kevin Herget was optioned to Triple-A Nashville to clear room on the 26-man active roster for Miley, who is slated to make his season debut Wednesday. While he was on the mend from a left shoulder impingement, Miley made just one rehab start with Nashville, covering three innings and tossing 55 pitches last Friday. With that in mind, he likely won't be fully stretched out for a traditional starting role Wednesday, and that reality plus the matchup with the Reds at a hitter-friendly ballpark makes Miley tough to trust as a streaming option in his 2024 debut.

Miley (shoulder) covered three innings in his rehab start Friday for Triple-A Nashville, striking out three while allowing one earned run on two hits and two walks.
EDGE Analysis
Though Miley tossed 55 pitches (30 strikes) in the rehab outing and isn't yet fully stretched out for a traditional starter's role, he's nonetheless expected to return from the 15-day injured list to make his next start for the Brewers, according to MLB.com. He tentatively lines up to take the hill Wednesday in Cincinnati as part of what's expected to be a six-man rotation while Milwaukee is in the midst of a stretch of 13 games in as many days.

Miley (shoulder) is scheduled to make a rehab start for Triple-A Nashville on Friday, MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miley opened the season on the 15-day injured list due to a left shoulder impingement, but he looks on track to be ready to return shortly after he's first eligible for activation April 9. After his shoulder checked out fine Monday following a two-inning simulated game, Miley will test himself in an uncontrolled setting Friday, and he'll likely increase his innings and pitch counts as well. The Brewers will check back in with Miley following the rehab start before determining his next step, but if he fares well Friday, his next outing could come with Milwaukee during its four-game series in Cincinnati at the beginning of next week.

Miley (shoulder) is next expected to make a minor-league rehab start after throwing a two-inning simulated game Monday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran left-hander is on the injured list to begin the season due to a shoulder impingement, but he may not be sidelined long beyond the 15-day minimum. It remains to be seen if Miley will require an additional rehab start in the minors, per Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, but if not, he could join Milwaukee's rotation sometime next week.

The Brewers placed Miley on the 15-day injured list Thursday with a left shoulder impingement.
EDGE Analysis
Miley will be eligible to return from the IL on April 9 and appears to be trending toward a return at or around that date. According to MLB.com, Miley threw a three-inning simulated game at Citi Field on Wednesday without issue. The Brewers plan to have Miley either toss one more sim game or head out to a minor-league affiliate to make one or two rehab starts before he slots into the big-league rotation.

Miley (shoulder, groin) will throw a three-inning simulated game Wednesday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
If the sim game goes off without a hitch, Miley will then report to Triple-A Nashville, where he'll make a couple rehab starts. The veteran left-hander missed most of spring training with a shoulder injury and, more recently, a groin issue. He will begin the season on the 15-day injured list but would seem to have a shot to be activated when first eligible April 9.
