He hasn't started a game in the last two seasons and has rewarded Boston with a 3.48 ERA over 73 appearances. Miller's current strikeout rate is by far the best of his career. May 22 - 4:45 AM

Andrew Miller - R - Red Sox

Andrew Miller (hamstring) walked four over 1 1/3 scoreless innings Thursday in his latest minor league rehab appearance with Triple-A Pawtucket.

While Miller struck out three and didn't allow a run, he threw just 20 out of 50 pitches for strikes. The Red Sox were considering activating him after Thursday's appearance, but he'll likely need to show a little more consistency first. His 30-day rehab window closes on May 7, so there's no rush.

Red Sox placed LHP Andrew Miller on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 26, with a strained left hamstring.

Andrew Miller - R - Red Sox

Andrew Miller was diagnosed with a mild left hamstring strain.

Miller left Tuesday's game due to the injury. No word on the severity yet, but given that he dealt with an elbow injury earlier this spring and has thrown just 4 1/3 innings during Grapefruit League action, his status for Opening Day is in doubt.
