Wade Miller Update

Miller is reportedly throwing 87-89 mph in his first Peoria start on his latest rehab assignment. That's a huge improvement over the 80-83 mph he was throwing earlier this season with the Cubs. Miller also struck out the side in the first inning. Perhaps Miller will offer another right-handed option for the Cubs left-handed heavy rotation, especially if Rich Hill or Sean Marshall continue to struggle.

Final line: 3 ip, 4 hits, 2 runs, no walks, struck out 5.
