C Ethan Miller (Slinger, 2027) was a big winner on Saturday with the bat and with the glove. Miller is an athletic backstop who measured at an athletic and projectable 5-foot-9, 186 pounds. With the bat, Miller tied for the second best max exit velocity among the 2027 participants at 90.3 mph and his 86.6 mph average exit velocity speaks to how on the ball he was throughout his round. Miller has a legitimate feel for the barrel and sprays line drives all over the field. Behind the plate, Miller really impressed our staff with his ability to handle some of the top arms in the state during bullpen work by showcasing his ability to receive balls in the pocket with his soft hands and keep the ball in the zone. Miller’s quickest throw down to second registered at 2.00, a notable number, especially for someone his age. With as many talented catchers that the state’s current freshman class possesses, Miller seems to be in the mix after this impressive performance on Saturday.

6/10/23

Miller stood out as a powerful bat over the weekend, as the prospect was able to put together multiple quality performances at the plate. The catcher went 2-for-3 on Saturday with three RBIs and a home run, showcasing his natural ability to pull the baseball with easy power. The righty presents quiet hands while in the batters box, paired with a simple load. Miller’s ability to get into his legs allows him to drive the baseball, as he was able to do multiple times over the weekend, accumulating a total of four hits and five RBIs. The 2027 prospect showed well behind the dish too, displaying quality footwork and a strong arm, making him a player to monitor in the future.

Miller was impressive for Stiks Gold in their win on the first day of the 13U PBR at The Rock Summer Championships. On the mound Miller is a fierce competitor who has some impressive stuff to back it up. With his fastball, Miller topped at 73 mph but his breaking ball was a pitch he showed confidence in as he was all around the zone with it and would throw it in any count.
