Cubs lefty Wade Miley wanted to make one thing clear Saturday, before a game against the White Sox that he said he was originally scheduled to start: “I’m not hurt. I’m a little banged up.”
Miley is dealing with some shoulder discomfort, which he likened to middle-of-spring training dead arm.
“I’m just going through it in the middle of baseball season,” Miley said.
Because he didn’t have a spring training. Instead, left elbow inflammation halted Miley’s ramp-up process before he threw in a game and landed him on the 10-day injured list to start the season.
