After adding a multifaceted splitter and cutter to his repertoire, Bryce Miller isn’t done tinkering. “Big Tex” has been toying with a new pitch in his arsenal, inspired by new(ish) teammate Mike Baumann. Former Mariner Robbie Ray once praised George Kirby, saying Kirby is the quickest he’s seen at picking up new tricks since former teammate Zack Greinke, but Miller might give Kirby a run for his money. Miller asked Baumann to show him the grip Baumann uses for his spike curve, experimented with it a few times in the bullpen, and now has started to put the pitch into game action.
