Miller bonked on the head but keeps chucking

Boston Globe — Andrew Miller pitched the top of the eight inning for the Red Sox on Friday night and was in the dugout looking to grab a piece of gum. "I heard this whistling noise behind me," he said. "Then it happened."

Bullpen use remains area of concern

Red Sox Blog | Providence Journal — By Tim BrittonARLINGTON, Tex. -- It was exactly what the Red Sox didn't want going into Sunday. A tight game in the late innings after another less-than-efficient outing from a starter forced the Boston bullpen back into action. For the second straight day, Koji Uehara, Junichi Tazawa and Andrew Miller all worked out of the pen. Manager John Farrell has said overworking his relievers is a concern. "They're climbing up there," he said after Saturday's loss. "Ideally you don't like to have any of your relievers in that league-lead [appearances] category. We need to get deeper into games from ...

Miller needs some target practice

Boston Red Sox Blog | ESPN Boston — BOSTON -- Last season, Andrew Miller appeared to have finally crossed the threshold from big tease to effective big-league pitcher, overcoming the control issues that had undermined the great stuff that had made Detroit choose him sixth overall in the 2006 draft. But three weeks into this season, gale warnings have been posted from Block Island to Cape Ann. Miller’s control issues, at least early on, have returned with a vengeance. He has walked six batters in just four innings, which translates to a walks per nine innings ratio of 13.

Struggling Miller walks home go-ahead run

Red Sox Blog | Providence Journal — By Brian MacPhersonBOSTON -- It might be damning by faint praise to point out that, from start to finish, Andrew Miller was the best relief pitcher the Red Sox had last season. But that was exactly what he was. He had a 3.35 ERA in 53 appearances out of the bullpen, striking out 51 hitters in 40 1/3 innings. Thanks presumably to the shift of his role from starting to relieving, he even managed to keep his walks -- his Achilles' heel ever since he broke into the major leagues -- to a more acceptable number. Through the first three weeks of this season, other than injured closer Joel Hanrahan,...

Royals 5, Red Sox 4: Webster debut ruined in nightcap

Red Sox Blog | Providence Journal — By Brian MacPhersonBOSTON -- The bad news was that the Kansas City Royals swept a doubleheader from the Red Sox at Fenway Park on Sunday, taking the two games by 4-2 and 5-4 scores. Koji Uehara allowed a game-tying solo home run to Billy Butler in the eighth inning of the nightcap, and Andrew Miller walked Lorenzo Cain with the bases loaded to force home the go-ahead run in the 10th. A team that had lost back-to-back games just once all season lost back-to-back games on the same day. The good news is that Allen Webster looks like the real deal. The baby-faced 23-year-old righty immediately ...

Still room on the Vernon Wells bandwagon

CBSSports.com Fantasy — Homering off Andrew Miller in the Yankees’ second game should bolster our Nando Di Fino’s not-so-popular opinion that Vernon Wells is well-worth a roster spot. He’s currently owned in just 33 percent of leagues despite Nando placing his homerun over/under at 24.5. It’s only one swing in one game, but ample at-bats could have Wells’ ownership percentage steadily climbing as the season progresses. Nando thinks most people were too distracted to see Wells’ Fantasy value, which was buried underneath the Angels’ $100 million mistake.
