In his lone start of 2017, Miley tossed five innings of shutout ball while allowing one hit, seven walks and five strikeouts Sunday against the Yankees. He did not factor into the decision after being activated from the disabled list due to an illness. Miley routinely escaped trouble despite throwing just 56 percent of his pitches for strikes.
Sanchez turned in a quality start in his debut performance, striking out six while walking three in a no-decision against the Rays on Sunday. He allowed just four hits and one run over a 101-pitch performance. Sanchez didn’t have his best stuff but still found a way to pitch well.
