Left-hander Wade Miley said he is well aware of the angst among Milwaukee Brewers fans over the great season (13-4, 3.06 ERA) he is having with the Houston Astros.

“My agent keeps me updated with that,” said Miley, who missed pitching in the two-game series at Miller Park by one day. “My agent is on Twitter and he’s always checking up on that stuff.”

Most of it is second-guessing because of the team’s pitching issues, but fans have complained that the Brewers allowed Miley to leave after playing a key role (5-2, 2.57 in 16 starts) in helping them advance within a game of the World Series. Miley said the Brewers did make him an offer to stay but the Astros gave him a better deal.

“I don’t really want to get into that,” Miley said Tuesday afternoon before the series opener. “I don’t want to create any bad blood either way with that. I made a decision to come to Houston. I loved my time here. I would have loved to come back here, no doubt. It just didn’t work out.”

Asked how close the offers were, Miley said, “I mean, it wasn’t close enough, obviously. And it was getting late in the year. It was kind of the same as the year before when I signed here late on a minor league deal.

“I’m the type of person that I want to pitch. I don’t want to drag this thing out into spring training again. I just told my agent, ‘I want a job.’ Houston’s close to home. It’s nice. It’s been great. I went with it and no looking back, no regrets. There’s no hard feelings anywhere.”

Miley said he didn’t blame the Brewers for wanting to develop their own starting pitchers in Corbin Burnes, Freddy Peralta and Woodruff, who was doing just fine before getting injured.

“You can’t just throw them in Triple-A forever,” Miley said. “It just didn’t work out. If it works out, nobody says a word. So, it’s hindsight. Those guys are really good. You can’t take anything away. I think they’re going to turn out to be great major leaguers. It’s just a matter of time.”

Miley is well aware that Burnes struggled badly, both in the majors and minors, but said he believes he will bounce back in 2020.

“I think he’s going to be great,” Miley said. “He’s going to clear his mind in the offseason and he’ll be back to doing fine. His stuff is too good. It plays up too well. He’s going to be fine. It’s hard to pitch up here, especially when you struggle early.”
