Name: Aidan MillerSchool: J.W. Mitchell HS, FLPosition: 3BHeight/Weight: 6' 2 , 205 lbs.B/ T: R/RD. O.B.: October 16, 2005Committed: ArkansasComp: Yandy Diaz (with pop) Devices|Hit: 50 Power: 60+ Run: 50 Area: 50 Arm: 60 Overall: 55The Review|Aidan Miller is the more youthful sibling of, Jackson Miller, a second-round pick of the Cincinnati Reds in the 2020 MLB Draft - a left-handed striking catching possibility with a canon for an arm. Both brothers finished from J.W. Mitchell High School in the little, census-designated location (CDA) of Trinity, Florida. This more youthful Miller, is a power-hitting third-base prospect who, like his bro, has lots of arm to save. Miller had an outstanding 2022 summertime on the showcase circuit, flaunting his powerful bat by winning the High Institution Homerun Derby Showcase throughout last July's MLB All-Star festivities in Los Angeles. He was additionally called MVP of the All-American Video game. Miller has actually stood for Team USA on its 12U *****, 15U and also 18U nationwide groups. He won gold with both the 15U and 18U groups and led the 2022 18U group in hitting (.478 ). Miller is plainly the leading third base prospect in the 2023 MLB Draft Class as well as is is possibly the fourth-best infield prospect.Pegging Miller's draft ranking is a little bit tricky for a number of reasons. On one hand, Miller has demonstrated among the most effective, most constant year-to-year prep bats to get in the draft in a few years, combining both the ability to pinch hit high average along with simple raw power that allows him to strike substantial bombs in game. This account originally had Miller as a player likely to go in the 5-10 range in this year's draft with the minor possibility to go previously. Nevertheless, Miller was struck with a broken hamate injury which sapped a great deal of his power over the training course of the in 2015. This substantial decrease in power caused him beginning to fall down the draft boards. Additionally, Miller brings some problems regarding the capability to authorize him, those concerns raising progressively the additional he drops (a lot more on that soon). All that stated, despite "dropping", Miller still places at # 13 total on MLB Pipeline, # 15 at Fangraphs, and # 20 overall at Baseball America. As a result of added situations, anybody drafting Miller should be anticipating to pay complete freight in order to land him.Aidan Miller is a high-upside preparation hitter with the prospective to be an influence bat at a very early age. He was additionally excellent on the mound throughout his senior high school profession, but his twitchy and also effective striking is where he'll stick as well as come to be an elite prospect - probably promptly. While he missed out on the bulk of his elderly period with a hamate injury, his offensive account is just one of one of the most outstanding amongst prep hitters in a packed class of university bats. Miller's swing is a bit distinct, including a substantial leg kick as well as a significant drawback as well as barrel pointer in his load. His easy raw power is past outstanding for a prep bat as well as he backs it up with impressive barrel job that enables him to drive pitches with authority in numerous areas while allowing him to turn about elite velocity. He is regularly promptly at call *****, with excellent balance as well as a constant head throughout the swing-- with some of the most impressive track record of efficiency you'll discover in the course. He is one of the very best pure hitters in the high college course featuring thunderous-power bat speed, an audio approach, advanced understanding of the strike area as well as (present) plus raw power, with a possibility for plus-plus power as he remains to complete. Basically, he is a very complete offensive player.At 6' 2" as well as 205 lbs. Miller is already a significant specimen. Nonetheless, his framework reveals lots of space for continued growth, which could include in his currently outstanding power stroke. Miller's current growth is what compelled the sure-handed infielder from brief to third. Miller's shortstop reflexes equated well to the hot corner. Miller's arm (currently with the ability of making the cross-diamond throw at 91 mph) is greater than with the ability of helping him remain at 3rd as he advances through the minors.On the bases, Miller's speed has actually decreased from somewhat above standard to just ordinary. There are some that think that, should he remain to mass up some, that his rate will certainly decline right into somewhat low-grade. Many appear to believe his speed will be simply fine, that he will certainly not be just one of those lumbering oafs that blocks the basepaths. One last significant caution looms over the decision to prepare Miller, his age. At the time of the draft, he will certainly be 19. While being "old for a prep bat" is not by itself a hinderance, Miller's age also indicates that he will certainly be a draft eligible sophomore if he honours his dedication to Arkansas. Provided that Miller's most current period was ruined by a performance-sapping injury, should he far drop enough or stop working to obtain sufficient of a benefit deal, he could really easily select to bank on himself and also return to the draft in two periods. Given Miller's present offensive profile which he still places as extremely as he carries out in this years packed draft course *****, it is not challenging to visualize that just returning to health might land him a top-10 choice in 2025. The Poet's Take|Miller's enormous possibility as well as excellent track document just about ensure that he is a first-round selection. Nevertheless, his injury, age, and also commitment, along with the depth of this draft course has his name peppered throughout draft boards, with electrical outlets buffooning him going as high as 10 and also as late as 34. Must the power return and the 2020 - 2022 variation of Miller turn up, anyone choosing him after # 10 is obtaining themselves a take. Must the injury prove bothersome long-lasting, that ranking in the 30s is probably pretty close. With Miller still having area on his structure for healthy and balanced, effective muscle mass development, the power concern, also if sapped by the injury some, can correct itself with no more hamate healing. Chances seem 50/50 at the very best that Miller will certainly still be on the board when Arizona makes their choice at # 12. While he won't be taking a hairstyle at # 12, he could quite possibly take one if picked in the top-10. His sophomore draft qualification makes complex issues hereof.
