Reaches deal with Detroit
Miller signed a one-year, $3 million contract with the Tigers on Friday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
ANALYSIS
The deal also includes a $4.25 million club option (or $250,000 buyout) for 2025. Miller had a sneaky-good season for the Dodgers in 2023 in relief, collecting a 1.71 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 42:19 K:BB over 42 innings. He should be used in high-leverage spots out of Detroit's bullpen.

Miller spent most of last season in Triple-A, where he racked up a 3.04 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, 69:21 K:BB ratio and 12 saves across 53.1 frames (43 appearances). The 32-year-old did make four appearances at the big league level late in the season, fanning 14 across seven innings for San Francisco, while only walking three. Miller has struggled mightily with his command since 2017, so 2022 was a big step in the right direction. It was enough for the Dodgers to speculate on his upside, as they signed Miller to a major-league deal for 2023, though it's currently unclear what role he will fill in their bullpen. There's enough here to take a stab in the final few rounds of NL-only league drafts or draft-and-holds.
