Brad Miller (elbow) back in Rays' lineup against Yankees
Tampa Bay Rays shortstop Brad Miller (elbow) is back in the starting lineup Friday against the New York Yankees.
What It Means:
A sore right elbow forced Miller to exit Thursday's contest early, but he's in the lineup just a day later. Miller will serve as the designated hitter on Friday and could need to remain in that role for a few days. The Rays will use the newly-signed Alexei Ramirez at shortstop, while Logan Morrison will play first base. Miller is slashing .254/.311/.495 in 511 plate appearances this season.
Miller's 26 home runs and .341 wOBA this year are both easily career-highs. We project him to hit three more taters and post a .732 OPS over the remaining course of the season.
