21 year Old Pitcher Shelby Miller made his major league debut tonight out of the pen and struck out 4 in 2 innings of work. Gave up 1 hit, 0 runs, and 0 walks. He's a starter, but has been sent to the pen to start his career in the bigs.

This is an up and coming white athlete to watch who has been the Cardinals top prospect the last 2 years and one of the highest ranked prospects in MLB.

Miller boasts a power fastball and improving offspeed stuff. He’s been ranked a Top 15 prospect by Baseball America for the past three years and has to be considered an early NL Rookie of the Year candidate.

The Cardinals are 2-3 on the season. They’ll wrap up their weekend series with the Giants on Sunday.

Miller owns a 1.89 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 20/8 K/BB ratio through his first 19 career big league innings.

Chris Sale and Matt Harvey joined Miller this week in throwing one-hit complete game shutouts, with no walks. Sale and Harvey are both 24 years old. Quite impressive young pitchers.
