Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said pitcher Shelby Miller would have pitched in Game 6 if "things got out of hand," according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Miller didn't see any time during the World Series after tossing a strong regular season. He was moved to the bullpen, but was not used in that role. The World Series eneded as Miller was warming up in the bullpen. Miller had a 3.06 ERA in 173 1/3 innings during the regular season. His innings limit was the main reason Miller didn't see much work during the postseason. Matheny said he believes Miller is a top of the rotation starter, and should pitch around 200 innings in 2014.
