You show’em, Brad Miller.

You’ll remember Miller played the part of a jilted lover after he was told he eventually would be moved from his familiar shortstop role following the Rays’ acquisition of Matt Duffy on Monday.

Thursday, Miller reminded his bosses that his bat is going nowhere. Miller launched a go-ahead three-run home run in the eighth inning, lifting the Rays to a 3-2 victory over the Royals that served as outright thievery. Last night, it was Miller time again, belting his stunning 20th homer of the year in a 6-2 pasting by the Twins at the Trop. (Hey, the Rays are only a half-game back of Minnesota!)

Joe has loved Miller’s blunt honesty since the trade. Too often, players push the company line and hide their true feelings. Not Miller.

Although Joe doesn’t think as highly of Miller’s shortstop skills as Miller does himself, his reactions to the news are entertaining.

Yesterday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times was there to capture more:

“They’re not doing me a favor by keeping me in the lineup,” Miller said. “I’ve earned it.”

Miller’s 20 bombs are second to everyone on the team except Evan Longoria.

Who saw that coming? Not Joe. Go figure.

Let’s hope PO’ed Miller makes more appearances in the weeks ahead. This guy can stick around awhile.
