Roberts told reporters that Phillips will throw a bullpen session on Wednesday, and Miller will throw simulated innings at the Dodgers' complex in Arizona.

Miller holds a 1-1 record with a 5.40 ERA, 18 strikeouts, and 1.46 WHIP in three starts. The young right-hander was off his game in his last two starts, which resulted in an IL stint.resumed catching on Friday after being placed on the injured list due to a right hamstring injury on May 3.
The Dodgers are surviving in the bullpen without Phillips. With a 3.08 bullpen ERA, they have the second-best ERA in the National League. L.A. is behind only the New York Mets, who have a 2.94 bullpen ERA.
