In July 2016, the Hall of Fame announced changes to the Era Committee system. The system's time-frames were restructured, with Miller to be evaluated by the Modern Baseball Era Committee, considering candidates whose greatest contributions occurred from 1970 to 1987. Miller again fell short in the Modern Baseball Era Committee balloting for 2018, receiving only seven of 16 votes, with 12 votes necessary for election. He was again on the Modern Baseball Era Committee ballot for 2020, and was elected with 12 of 16 votes in December 2019. Miller was formally inducted on September 8, 2021, with Donald Fehr delivering a speech on his behalf.
