    Miller doesn’t have the loudest toolset you’ll ever see, but he has a solid all-around game that scouts are drawn to the more they watch him play. A 6-foot, 195-pound backstop committed to Wake Forest, Miller has few holes to speak of in his game. Defensively he has soft, quiet hands and receives well behind the plate with average arm strength and a good, clean transfer in his throws. He projects as at least an average defender and could get to a tick better than that. Offensively, Miller has a simple, low-maintenance swing that is geared for line drives more than home runs. He’s a gap-to-gap hitter and with a fairly mature frame it’ll be tough to project too much more in terms of power, but with a chance to hit from the left side and solid tools across the board, there’s a lot to like. Some scouts thought he could have been a breakout candidate with a strong performance this spring.
