Scoreless streak snapped Monday
Miller allowed two runs on three hits and no walks while striking out one over one inning in Monday's 9-7 win over the Cubs.
Analysis
Miller's outing, a non-save situation, got off to an unfortunate start when a Matt Shaw dribbler down the third-base line was ruled fair before the Cubs strung together two more hits and scored two runs, though Miller was able to limit the damage and secure the win. The appearance snapped the hard-throwing right-hander's streak of 34.2 scoreless innings, which dated back to last season and set a franchise record. The 27-year-old's numbers in 2026 remain dominant, as he owns a 1.26 ERA and 0.56 WHIP with a 28:2 K:BB and 10 saves across 14.1 innings.

Earns 10th save
Miller threw a perfect ninth inning to earn the save in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks. He did not record a strikeout.
Analysis
Miller was summoned to protect a two-run lead in the ninth and did so on 13 pitches. According to AJ Cassavell of MLB.com, the right-hander now holds the Padres' record for the longest regular-season scoreless streak at 34.2 innings, which ranks eighth in major-league history among relievers. Of that stretch, 13.1 frames have come in 2026, and Miller is a perfect 10-for-10 in save chances with a 0.38 WHIP and a ridiculous 27:2 K:BB to open the campaign.

Nails down ninth save
Miller picked up the save Thursday against the Rockies, allowing one hit and no walks with no strikeouts in a scoreless ninth inning.
Analysis
It was the first time in 12 outings this year that Miller was unable to fan a batter, but he still has a remarkable 19.7 K/9. Other than that blemish, the hard-throwing right-hander continues to be nearly untouchable. Miller, who's now up to an MLB-high nine saves in 2026, hasn't given up a run since Aug. 5 of last year, firing 33.2 consecutive scoreless frames in the regular season to tie Cla Meredith's franchise record.
