Bobby Miller Using 2023 Postseason Struggles as Motivation

The Los Angeles Dodgers' 2023 season ended abruptly, swept by the division-rival  Arizona Diamondbacks in a five-game National League Division Series. The Dbacks ultimately found themselves in the World Series.

The Dodgers were flat-out outplayed in the NLDS. Starting pitching was a big reason why. Clayton Kershaw, Lance Lynn and rookie Bobby Miller combined to pitch 4.2 innings and allow 13 runs. 

There was no silver lining. Even after a month and a half, that feeling hasn't left Miller. 

In a recent interview with Spectrum SportsNet LA, Miller spoke about his struggles in the postseason and how he will bounce back for a strong 2024 season. 

“Every day I think about it. I think about it everyday, last season. Especially the ending. That’s something I’m never going to forget. You know getting my teeth kicked in, getting swept by a team. That’s something I’m never going to forget. Something I’ll keep in mind going into next season. It’s just going to make me hungrier every start.”
