Miller, 19, was committed to playing college baseball for the University of Arkansas. The righty projects as a third baseman or shortstop at the professional level and was highly thought of for his quick hands and power. Miller was ranked the N0. 6 overall prospect and No 2. shortstop prospect in the nation according to Perfect Game. The Mitchell High School (Trinity, FL) product will now begin his journey to Major League Baseball in his own backyard. Miller’s amateur career has been played in Florida in the shadow of the Carpenter Complex in Clearwater.
