There’s always something exciting about a new highly touted prospect making his debut. Despite some major nerves, Andrew Miller had a fine debut. He induced a lazy flyball, a chopper to third, and a roller to third. He also hit a guy but that just served to show off the break on his slider. He threw his 4 seamer in the mid 90’s, and his slider from the low 80’s to 89 MPH.

You could see the relief on his face as he laughed his way back to the dugout. A great debut for Miller, and hopefully we’ll see a lot more of him in years to come.

Billfer, Hey thanks for this little cut is was really nice to see. I had to work and could not see it. Did anyone see the camera swing to Verlander watching. He is basically the same age with almost a whole year under his belt. If Miller comes around like Verlander, we could have the best staff in the majors for a while.

I am really not a Perez fan. We should all be praying that Polly gets better sooner than later. Maybe the Cubs will just take him back for a bat and a ball.
