Scouting Report
1.19.19
Miller had a solid all around day, beginning with a 7.02 60-yard dash, then he took outstanding round of BP with a fluid hack, threw 84 across the diamond, then absolutely mowed down hitters in one inning of work. He pumped strikes with command of three with his fastball sitting 81-83, a 67-69 mph curveball and a 75-76 mph changeup. The right-handed hitter has a simple load as he triggers his hands back and lowers his center of gravity, striding forward, landing stacked with separation. Efficient path to ball with quick hands through the zone and gap approach. Easy weight transfer with no waisted movement, gap approach with line drive power and solid feel for the barrel.

Miller has a strong frame at 5-foot-10, 160-pounds. The right-handed hitter starts from an athletic stance, simple swing with a smooth load and works behind the ball to create a fluid swing with easy power, present strength and an exit velocity of 86 mph. Had an impressive approach in batting practice with good extension driving balls hard to the power alleys. On the infield, Miller plays low with his hands out front, quick footwork and clean transition with rhythm as he funnels the ball to the mid-line of his body. Arm works well from a high-¾ slot with solid accuracy and a top velocity of 83 mph across the diamond.
