Mason Miller Resumes Throwing
1 year agoOakland Athletics rookie right-hander Mason Miller (elbow) has resumed a throwing program. It's a good start, but Miller has a ways to go before the A's return him to their starting rotation. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect the 24-year-old pitching prospect to be back in the big leagues for at least another month. He's currently on the 15-day injured list due to a mild UCL sprain in his right elbow. The team's No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, was looking solid in his first four major-league starts before the injury, posting a 3.38 ERA (3.10 FIP), 0.98 WHIP, seven walks and 22 strikeouts in 21 1/3 innings pitched. Miller is currently rostered in only 16% of Yahoo leagues, but that number will inevitably rise once he's closer to a return.
