Diamondbacks' Shelby Miller: Gets Coors Field treatment Saturday

Miller (2-7) gave up 11 hits, seven earned runs and a walk over six innings in Saturday's 11-6 loss to the Rockies.

Analysis:

The 25-year-old couldn't duplicate the success he'd seen in his first appearance back from injury against the Phillies last Monday, instead surrendering the most earned runs in a start all season. The setting certainly didn't do him any favors, but Miller also failed to help his own cause by sandwiching homers to Charlie Blackmon and Tony Wolters around RBI hits from Daniel Descalso, Wolters and Nolan Arenado. Miller's ERA is back up to 6.79, and he's yielded at least one homer in five of his last six trips to the mound. He'll look to rebound versus the Giants on Friday.
