Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins said Wednesday that the team has yet to decide whether Miles will be used as a starting pitcher or reliever next season, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
Scherzer (4-9) notched the win Sunday against the Reds, striking out seven while allowing one run on six hits and one walk in seven innings.

Lewis went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Rangers.
Guerrero is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.
Soriano did not factor into the decision Friday against the Reds, allowing five runs on eight hits while striking out two across three innings. He did not issue a walk.
Varland earned the save in Friday's 6-5 win over the Reds, striking out two batters in a scoreless ninth inning.
Bateman (hip) is expected to return to the starting lineup Saturday against the Reds, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Kevin Gausman has allowed 0-2 earned runs in five of six starts and is backed by a trending-upward bullpen facing a struggling Twins offense. Minnesota likely won’t score much. On the flip side, Bailey Ober has been solid his last two starts for the Twins, but the team hasn’t won a game without scoring at least 11 runs in over a week.
We played this same number yesterday from Target Field in part due to chilly temps and it cashed vs. Seattle. Same deal really tonight in a series opener with the Jays in town. Toronto's Kevin Gausman has been terrific with 2.57 ERA. Minnesota's Bailey Ober has a 3.68 ERA at home. Target Field is pitcher-friendly regardless. The full-game total is 8 so I wouldn't play any lower than this and could have gotten either 4 or a 3.5.
