The batting common wasn’t nice, however Miller had an honest stroll charge and a few good pop in is bat, so there are instruments there to work with for the 6-foot-3, 215-pounder.
Miller spent the 2022 season within the impartial Atlantic League, taking part in for (and I promise I’m not making this identify up) the Kentucky Wild Well being Genomes in his hometown of Lexington, Kentucky. Los Angeles has had some respectable success with Kentucky merchandise not too long ago, together with Will Smith and Walker Buehler. Extremely touted prospects Bobby Miller and Dalton Dashing aren’t from Kentucky, however each (like Smith) went to school on the College of Louisville.
Miller went to Western Kentucky, the place he posted a .998 OPS his junior 12 months earlier than being drafted within the third spherical by Kansas Metropolis in 2015. He labored his approach up by means of the minors, however his Triple-A season in 2021 was reduce quick by an ankle harm, and he turned a free agent after that season.
