Miller started at third base, batted leadoff and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a second RBI in Friday's spring training game against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Miller is in the mix at third base as well as left field for the Rangers. The utility player is 5-for-11 with a pair of home runs, five RBI and three runs scored over three games. If he doesn't settle in at left field -- both Nick Solak and Eli White have impressed this spring -- the lefty-hitting Miller could overtake the right-handed hitting Andy Ibanez as the starting third baseman or at the very least be the strong side of a platoon.

Miller agreed to a contract with the Rangers on Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller appeared in 140 games for the Phillies in 2021 and hit .227/.321/.453 with 20 home runs and 49 RBI, and he'll now head to Texas for 2022. The veteran infielder saw most of his action at first base but also played second base, third base, left field and right field. Miller will at least be a strong bench option for the Rangers and could push Andy Ibanez for the starting job at third base following the recent departure of Isiah Kiner-Falefa.

Miller isn't starting Saturday's game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Miller will head to the bench with left-hander Jesus Luzardo on the mound for Miami. J.T. Realmuto will shift to first base while Andrew Knapp starts at catcher.

Miller isn't starting Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller had drawn starts in each of the last five games, but he'll get a breather after he went 0-for-5 with two walks and two strikeouts across the last two contests. Matt Vierling will start at first base and bat sixth.

Miller went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 8-6 win over Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old achieved his second 20-homer season with his fourth-inning blast Friday. His career high is 30 long balls in 152 games with Tampa Bay in 2016, so he'll have to settle for a lower milestone this season. Miller is slashing .231/.320/.471 with 47 RBI, 52 runs scored and three stolen bases across 353 plate appearances. He'll likely continue as a strong-side platoon option at first base to close out the year.

Miller isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Miller has gone 0-for-6 with three strikeouts across his last three appearances, and he'll head to the bench with left-hander Keegan Akin on the mound for the Orioles. Matt Vierling will start at first base and bat eighth.

Miller isn't starting Monday's game against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Miller will be out of the lineup for a second straight game with left-hander John Means on the mound for Baltimore. Matt Vierling will start at first base and bat sixth.

Miller is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Along with Miller, fellow left-handed hitters Didi Gregorius and Odubel Herrera will bow out of the starting nine with the Mets bringing southpaw Rich Hill to the mound. J.T. Realmuto will replace Miller at first base, while Andrew Knapp picks up a start behind the plate. Miller was in the lineup for each of the past three contests, going 4-for-11 with a solo home run, a double and two additional runs.

Miller is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

After J.T. Realmuto sat out Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Cubs with right shoulder inflammation, the Phillies are easing their top backstop back into action by deploying him at first base, leaving no spot available for Miller. Assuming Realmuto's shoulder issue doesn't prevent him from resuming catching duties in short order, Miller should reclaim a near-everyday role at first base before long. He started five of the previous six games and went 3-for-18 with a home run and four walks.

Miller went 1-for-1 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 6-1 win over Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old didn't start Saturday's contest, but he entered as a pinch hitter and hit his 18th homer of the year in the seventh inning. Miller is now 3-for-8 with three walks in his last three games. He's slashing .231/.327/.470 with 44 RBI, 47 runs scored and three stolen bases across 321 plate appearances. He's likely to continue in a strong-side platoon role at first base.
