Miller averages over a strikeout more per 9. Less than a half a walk less.
There isn't a huge gap between the 2, but I woudl say Miller has been a bit better.
Waiwright had given up 8 er in last 30 innings before last 2 bad starts.

The scary thing is that there isn't a SINGLE player on this roster that we should expect to regress next year outside of CJ's BA (he is probably a .280-.290 hitter). Every single other player should pretty much expect to be BETTER next year, or at the very worst, the same.
BJ and Uggla can't possibly be any worse next year. Justin should find some more consistency as he matures. Heyward will eventually run out of odd injuries that can possibly happen to him (just go ahead and have his tonsils removed as a precautionary measure this offseason). Freeman should continue to improve steadily, likely in the power department. Simmons' defense will remain steady, and he should only get better at the plate. Mac should keep being Mac, and Gattis should be able to learn how to hit a curve eventually.
I won't go through all the pitchers, but none of them are having some freak year, and all have plenty of room to improve (except Kimbrel obviously).

What we should be looking at is how good Miller and Teheran are right now, what they did in April doesnt really have relevance to October. Second half stats so far Teheran in 8 starts 48.1 innings 2.23 ERA 35 hits 19 walks 54 k's. Miller in 7 starts 39.1 innings 3.66 ERA 38 hits 15 walks 42 k's. To be fair to Miller I took out his start where he got hit by a line drive by the second batter of the game and was removed. Teheran has been more consistent posting an ERA under 3 since the first month of the season. Miller has an ERA over 4 in June and August.
It's also crazy how ESPN is all over Jose Iglesias' nuts.
Agreed, it's ridiculous everytime someone brings up a Braves player, he bashes them or whatnot. When people say good things about one.
As posted above, the numbers are basically identical.
Neither are aces, they don't have the track record as of this moment but if Miller is one, so is Julio.
Teheran has been trending up, Miller down.
Miller will still be really good, but I trust Teheran more right now.
So nothing jumps out about us and other teams look better on paper, yet, we have the best record in baseball.
Sounds to me like Fredi Gonzalez deserves manager of the year then. Doubt that happens though.
will someone please look up grienke's post season numbers they are awful with a capital A and when exactly has kershaw stArted a postseAson game? Nolasco hasn't impressed me and we all seen a lot out of him they're pen can't touch atours. The dodgers can be beaten 2 aces or not we had 3 did that make us automatic? How about mussina,Clemens and pettite
Oh yAh they lost to Beckett Burnett and penny
