Miller (neck) threw a scoreless inning in the Arizona Complex League on Saturday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Saturday's appearance was Miller's first since being placed on the injured list in June, and he was sharp in his first game back, serving up a single but striking out three batters. Miller is on the 60-day injured list, so he will not rejoin the big club until at least Aug. 20.

Miller (neck) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Friday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
We knew Miller was not close to a return, so this move makes sense to enable the Dodgers to add Jake Marisnick to the 40-man roster. Miller is out with an unspecified neck issue and should be considered out indefinitely.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Tuesday that Miller (neck) is "still a ways away" from returning, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller was placed on the injured list June 21 due to lingering neck discomfort and Roberts told reporters that the 32-year-old right-hander is "not in a good spot" with his recovery even after a two-week shutdown period. It sounds like he could remain sidelined through all of July.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday that Miller (neck) will be out for a minimum of 3-to-4 weeks, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller has dealt with neck problems previously during his career, and his current injury appears to be the most recent instance of a long-standing issue. The 32-year-old righty has been solid this season with a 2.40 ERA and 1.00 WHIP through 30 innings, but his next appearance will have to wait until after the All-Star break.

The Dodgers placed Miller on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with neck pain.
EDGE Analysis
Miller hadn't made an appearance since last Thursday and will now get a couple weeks off for rest and treatment. The 32-year-old right-hander has proven to be a nice find for Los Angeles this season, boasting a 2.40 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 31 strikeouts through 30 innings of relief. He'll be eligible to return in early July.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters Tuesday that Miller (personal) is expected back from bereavement leave before Wednesday's game against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Miller has been away from the team since Saturday while dealing with more important matters. The right-hander will be a mid-to-late inning option for the Dodgers upon his return.

Miller was placed on the bereavement list Saturday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Players may spend between three and seven days on the bereavement list, placing Miller's expected return date somewhere between Tuesday and next Saturday. Andre Jackson was called up to take his place in the bullpen.

Miller struck out one in a perfect ninth inning Tuesday to record his first career save in an 8-7 win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Evan Phillips was needed earlier in the game and Brusdar Graterol is on the paternity list, so Miller got the call for the save situation after the Dodgers regained the lead in the eighth inning. The 32-year-old right-hander has been solid in relief so far, and while his 11:7 K:BB through 11 innings indicates some control issues, he's been scored upon only once in 10 appearances. Miller isn't yet a regular part of the Dodgers' high-leverage crew -- he's still looking for his first hold of the season -- but he appears to be earning the trust of manager Dave Roberts.

Miller will be part of the Dodgers' bullpen to begin the regular season, per Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register.
EDGE Analysis
Miller signed with the Dodgers on a minor-league contract last November. He was far from a lock to make the team after pitching in just four games last season and posting an ugly 8.92 ERA over 79.2 innings since 2018. However, the veteran showed some positives this spring, registering an 11:0 K:BB over seven frames (though he also gave up five earned runs). The Dodgers have a history of success with pitching reclamation projects, and Miller could be the next in line if he's able to carry over his spring success to the regular season.
