Cubs DFA 6-Year MLB Veteran Infielder

The Chicago Cubs have decided to let go of infielder Owen Miller, a six-season Major League Baseball veteran. Miller was brought up from Triple-A Iowa just a few days ago but did not get a chance to bat during his brief stint with the team. Following his call-up, Miller was subsequently designated for assignment by the National League Central club.

Miller put up impressive numbers while playing for Triple-A Iowa this season, registering seven home runs, 57 RBI, and a .296 batting average in 96 games. His performance before being designated for assignment by the Cubs suggests that he was having a strong season. If a team is looking to bolster their infield depth, they may want to claim Miller off waivers from the Cubs.

With a proven track record in MLB, Miller has played 304 games over six seasons in the league, spanning four different teams including the Cleveland Guardians, Milwaukee Brewers, Colorado Rockies, and the Cubs. In those games, he has managed to hit 15 home runs, drive in 100 RBI, and maintain a .238 batting average.

It remains to be seen if Miller can find another team willing to give him a chance after being designated for assignment by the Cubs.
