Robert
Miller

RHP Robert Miller (Vernon Hills, 2026) emerged as an uncommitted name to keep tabs on throughout the spring. He presents a strong and well-proportioned frame at 6-foot, 195-pounds. His arsenal was headlined by an 86-88 mph fastball that had life out of the hand, showing occasional run. His best off-speed pitch on the day was a 75-76 mph slider that played laterally with late bite. Miller also showed feel for a changeup at 73-75 mph with sink (avg. 3.7” IVB), located at the bottom of the zone for strikes (75%).
