Diamondbacks' Shelby Miller: Shows improvement, but loses in return from minors

Miller (2-10) pitched six quality innings, but still took the loss Wednesday versus the Giants. He allowed two runs on six hits and one walk while notching three strikeouts.

Analysis:

Miller was recalled from Triple-A to make Wednesday's start, his first MLB outing since July 6. Despite the loss, Miller was able to record his third quality start in 15 tries this season. The right-hander certainly looked much better than the last time we saw him -- in his last three starts prior to being demoted, Miller gave up 18 runs and 26 hits over 17 innings. He's scheduled to make another start Tuesday against the Dodgers, but Miller doesn't offer much fantasy appeal outside of a bargain punt play in daily formats.
