Session Two of the College Prospects Showcase took place yesterday at Keystone State Baseball Academy in Manheim, PA. The following is a look at the top performances on the day. A complete analysis of prospects at each position will be coming in the week ahead. For now, CLICK HERE to view complete results for all prospects in attendance.
Top prospect
Conestoga junior RHP/SS Tim Miller impressed in all facets of the game to walk away with top prospect honors. The 6-foot-2, 185-pound righty sat 84-86 while touching 87 mph out of a high 3/4 arm slot. Miller displayed a fluid, athletic delivery with even tempo. His two-seam fastball showed heavy run and sink while as did his 76 mph changeup delivered at fastball arm speed. Miller also flashed a 73 mph curveball with slider action that he repeatedly threw for strikes down in the zone.
Miller also displayed the potential to be a highly recruited middle infielder. The right-handed hitter displayed good balance with quick hands and solid extension to his swing. Miller starts from a slightly open stance with a leg lift stride. He showed the ability to routinely barrel the baseball with authority to all fields.
Miller ran a solid 7.02 60-yard dash and showed well above average arm strength across the diamond (88 mph). The junior showed the ability to play through the baseball and a quick release with a soft glove hand.
