Miller is a 6-foot, 200-pound third baseman who spent two seasons with Bishop State (Ala.) JC where he hit nearly .400 in his time with the program and led the team in most offensive categories as a sophomore. He transferred to Alabama for the 2024 season and maintained his high-level offensive performance with a .381/.474/.702 slash line and 18 home runs. His .381 average was the third-best mark among SEC hitters and he also has a strong performance track record in the Perfect Game Collegiate League during multiple summers. Miller has a very simple and quiet setup in the box with an even stance and the barrel rested on his shoulder until his load phase when he has a slight lift of the barrel and a slight leg kick before firing his hands to the ball. He’s an extremely pull-heavy hitter and almost all of his power went to the pull side, but Miller did a nice job making contact against fastballs and breaking balls, and more than held his own with 92+ mph velocity. He’s a bat-first prospect and below-average runner who is a risk to move off of third base at the next level. He’ll make the routine play but his range and footwork are light. He might not have the arm strength necessary for the position, though his bat might still fit in a corner outfield spot if he can’t stick on the dirt.
