Jackson Miller

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