Tosses three scoreless frames Miles opened Sunday's game against the Angels, allowing two hits while striking out two batters across three scoreless innings. He did not issue a walk.

Impact Sunday was the first major-league start of Miles' career as he served as the Blue Jays' opener in the series finale. He ended up tossing 28 strikes on 38 pitches (73.7 percent) and limited the Angels to just two baserunners, though Eric Lauer -- who served in the bulk-relief role -- ended up taking the loss after yielding six runs over the final five frames. Given Lauer's struggles this season and the myriad of injuries to the Blue Jays' rotation, it's possible that Miles could see some more spot starts moving forward.

Serving as Sunday's opener Miles will serve as the Blue Jays' opener for Sunday's series finale against the Angels, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Impact Miles will open things up for the Blue Jays and work for an inning or two before handing the keys over to Eric Lauer. Miles gave up two runs in 1.1 inning in his last outing Tuesday against the Rays but has otherwise been solid for the Blue Jays this season. Across 11 outings, he has a 3.50 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 16:5 K:BB across 18 innings.

Continues to impress Miles walked one and struck out three in two scoreless innings of relief during Wednesday's win over the Red Sox.

Impact The rookie Rule 5 pick handled the last two innings for the Blue Jays to protect a 7-1 lead, and Miles has no trouble with the assignment, tossing 16 of 26 pitches for strikes. While the 25-year-old right-hander has predictably been limited to low-leverage spots, he has looked like he belongs in the majors, producing a 2.87 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 15:5 K:BB through his first 15.2 MLB innings.

Collects win in MLB debut Miles (1-0) picked up the win Saturday against the A's, walking one and striking out one in a scoreless 11th inning.

Impact The Rule 5 pick was thrown right into a high-leverage situation in his big-league debut, and Miles rose to the challenge by stranding the phantom runner before the Blue Jays walked it off in the bottom of the frame. Miles was sitting 97-98 mph with both his two-seam and four-seam fastballs while mixing in a slider that produced his first career strikeout against Max Muncy, and while the 25-year-old right-hander had never pitched above Single-A prior to Saturday, his arsenal could quickly make him an asset in the Toronto bullpen if his control and command hold up.

Wins bullpen spot Miles has claimed a spot in the Blue Jays' Opening Day bullpen, Gregor Chisholm and Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star report.

Impact A Rule 5 pick out of the Giants' system, Miles has yet to pitch above Single-A and didn't take the mound at all in 2025 as he recovered from Tommy John surgery. The 25-year-old right-hander showed enough this spring to stick on the 26-man roster, however, posting a 3.72 ERA and 11:5 K:BB in 9.2 innings and topping out at 98.1 mph with his sinker in his final spring outing March 22. Miles will begin his big-league career in a low-leverage role, but his premium velocity could allow him to move up the depth chart if he shows he can harness it effectively.
