Most relievers are relievers because they are failed starters and better with limited exposure. I admit to not knowing Miller's situation. But either way the Cubs are too good to not eventually get to him if they get this many looks on him. Perhaps what the announcer said about Francona really valuing this first game is accurate so that is why he has just gone straight to Miller here.
