Last scored matchup
Miles isn't on today's slate. He was last scored 11 days ago, at home against Chicago Cubs on Wednesday, August 12, 2026. This page refreshes with new projections as soon as he's back in a lineup.
Season line
11 starts, 3-9, 5.82 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, 116.0 innings. He's struck out 58 over that span, against 23 walks. This is the baseline the matchup adjusts from — the model starts here and then asks what the specific lineup he's facing does to strikeout arms, how the park plays, and how deep he's likely to go.
He throws right-handed
Miles throws right-handed, which is the ordinary case and means fewer wild swings in the lineup he faces. Opposing managers aren't restacking against him the way they would a left-hander, so his projection moves more on the quality of the lineup than on its handedness. What does move it: how deep he's been going lately, and whether the lineup in front of him strikes out.
His last 5 starts
Miles has 8 strikeouts in 21.7 innings across his last 5 starts, a 3.3 K/9, with a 7.06 ERA over that stretch and 3 walks. Strikeouts are the one pitcher market where our model has found real, graded room — projected workload and the specific lineup he draws move that number more than a season-long rate does. Start-by-start detail is in the log below.
Strikeouts and control
Miles has 58 strikeouts and 23 walks in 116.0 innings this season — 4.5 K/9 against 1.8 BB/9, a 2.5-to-1 ratio. That's strong control, and it does more for his projection than the raw strikeout number does. Walks are the fastest way to shorten a start — an arm that doesn't issue them gets deeper into games, which is what the outs and strikeout lines are really pricing.
What his floor looks like
Miles has made 25 starts this season, averaging 4.6 innings with a 5.82 ERA across them. In the 11 starts we hold detailed lines for, he got through five or more innings 6 times. That ratio is the honest read on his floor, and it's what separates an arm worth projecting on the outs board from one whose good starts are unpredictable enough that the market prices them better than we do.
How long he goes
Miles is averaging 4.8 innings a start across his last 8 outings, with a high of 7.0 and about 76 pitches a night. He's not going deep, and that caps the strikeout and outs projections no matter how good the matchup looks — you can't strike out hitters you don't face. Expected batters faced is one of the bigger inputs to his score for exactly this reason.
A long gap since his last start
Miles hasn't started in 12 days. That's the single most useful warning on a pitcher's page, and it's the model's weakest spot. A gap that long usually means an injured-list stint, and a first start back is often on a strict pitch limit that no stat line reveals — books frequently don't post an outs line at all in that spot. Our projection is built on his healthy workload, so it will overshoot a shortened rehab start. Read any projection here with that in mind until he's stretched back out.
How the model reads him
The number on Miles is about tonight, not about him. Strip out the name and the model is asking one question: what does this specific lineup do to this kind of arm, in this park, for as many batters as he's likely to face? That gets scored against every other starter on the slate. The combination math is proprietary and re-tuned every week. The grading isn't — it's all public, including the misses.
What we'd flag
Books don't price every player — coverage tops out around 87% even for confirmed starters, so "no line" here usually means no book posted one rather than a gap in our data. Lineups change late, and an afternoon projection can be stale by first pitch. And the model is tuned across hundreds of graded outcomes, so one game tells you nothing about whether it's working. For Miles specifically, he's coming off a 12-day gap.
