    Though most teams prefer Whitaker, Miller was making a late surge and could go ahead of him in the late first round. He has the same build (6-foot-4, 180 pounds), a better breaking ball (in his case, a hard slider) and changeup, and more overall pitchability. He doesn't throw as hard as Whitaker, but Miller generates tremendous sink on his 90-92 mph fastball. He throws it so easily that he projects to reach the mid-90s in time. Add it all up, and some scouts compare him to two-time Cy Young Award winner Bret Saberhagen.
