Scouting Report  
 
Miglino stands in at 5-foot-6, 130-pounds with a lean athletic frame. Ran a 7.14 – 60. Offensively- Lefty sets up with his feet outside his shoulders with knees bent slightly and an upright torso. Hands held just above back shoulder with slight pre-pitch bat movement. On pitch his trigger is a load back with a quiet stride forward with his hands moving back into a good hitting position. Good lower body rotation creating torque allowing whole body to get into swing. Decent bat path getting into hitting zone with a level swing into a high two handed finish. Timing is slightly off allowing ball to get too deep into hitting zone before attacking. Focusing on seeing the ball out of the pitcher's hand will improve timing. When timing was consistent Miglino was hitting line drives in Right Center gap.  Recorded an exit velocity of 68 MPH. Defensively- Good footwork and approach to baseball from the outfield. Moves well left/right with decent crow hop mechanics into a throwing position. Release and follow through have an uphill tendency. Will improve power and accuracy in throw by working on throwing downhill through the intended target. Recorded a positional velocity of 68 MPH.

 
What to Expect 
"The LHH  has a repetitive line drive stroke with easy effort and balance at the plate. Offensive abilities will play at the next level. Looking to see an uptick in foot speed and arm strength to allow for a projection that will included CF along with LF. With physical gains and continued experience Miglino could be more then a sleeper pick."
