D-backs GM: Miller feeling pressure of big trade

Shelby Miller is still without a win a month into his time with the Arizona Diamondbacks. The team's general manager thinks the right-hander is putting too much pressure on himself after being the centerpiece of a major December trade.

Diamondbacks general manager Dave Stewart told SiriusXM MLB Network Radio on Sunday morning that Miller is trying to live up to the hefty price the team paid to acquire him from the Atlanta Braves. The Diamondbacks' package to Atlanta included shortstop prospect Dansby Swanson (the No. 1 overall pick in the 2015 draft), outfielder Ender Inciarte and pitching prospect Aaron Blair.
