“I hate what happened to Tyler,” Miley told reporters, per Bob Nightengale of USA Today. “It sucks. My thoughts are with his family and friends. But I’m not going to sit here and talk about things that somebody might have said about me or whatnot. I was never a witness for any of this. I’ve never been accused of any wrongdoing.”

Skaggs, who passed at 27, succumbed to a mix of alcohol, fentanyl, and oxycodone. The lawsuit, filed by his family, led to the conviction of Angels’ ex-communications director Eric Kay for supplying the fatal pill. Skaggs’ former agent, Ryan Hamill, testified: “He came clean. He said he had been using — I believe it was Percocets — and he said he got them through Wade Miley.” The claim, from a 2013 conversation, implicates Miley, a 2012-2013 Diamondbacks teammate and 2012 NL All-Star.
