Summary
Shelby Miller’s season is over, but his future with the Cubs is far from done. After a swift recovery from elbow surgery, he pitched in 13 rehab games for Iowa, proving he could throw again — and even made the team’s playoff push a possibility. But with the wild card race heating up, the Cubs opted for caution, choosing reliability over risk. Miller, eager to contribute, was shut down for the rest of the year — a tough pill to swallow. Signed to a two-year deal, he’s now set to anchor the bullpen in 2027, making this a sacrifice for a bigger picture. His story is a stark reminder of how playoff pressure forces tough calls — even when a player’s heart is in it. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
