In 2020, Jackson Miller came out of J.W. Mitchell High School in Florida as one of the better prep catchers in the class, going in the second round to the Reds. Now it’s his younger brother Aidan’s turn. After a strong summer on the showcase circuit -- highlighted by All-American Game MVP honors and a Home Run Derby title as part of the All-Star break in Los Angeles -- he has the chance to get taken earlier than his brother, even though he missed much of his senior season because of a broken left hamate.
Miller is a corner infielder with the kind of offensive profile pro teams want at that spot. The right-handed hitter has easily plus raw power and has shown he can get to it in games against good competition, showing no difficulty in turning around elite velocity. He already has a lot of strength.
When he first got to high school, a leaner Miller played shortstop. As he’s physically matured, he’s slowed and is bigger and more of an average runner. He has the arm, hands and actions to play third base, his current position, at least in the short-term. Even if he had to move to first, his bat looks like it will play, with the kind of offensive upside that could land the Arkansas recruit in the first round.

After a strong summer showcase circuit performance that included winning the All-American Game MVP and Home Run Derby during MLB’s All-Star break in Los Angeles, Miller looked poised to be one of the top high school bats early in the first round of the 2023 Draft. He broke his left hamate early in the spring and missed nearly all of his senior year in Florida. He remained on the board until the back end of the first round, where the Phillies were thrilled to take him and sign him to a slightly over-slot bonus of $3.1 million, then watched him make a strong, but brief, first impression in pro ball.
A right-handed hitting infielder, Miller’s easily plus raw power that showed up in the Derby in L.A. has the chance to be legit at the highest level. He can turn around velocity without difficulty and has already shown he’s far from a one-trick pony, with a solid approach that enables him to make consistent contact, limit strikeouts and work counts, giving more confidence he’ll continue to get to that power as he moves up the ladder.
Miller began his pro career at shortstop, his position in high school. Even though most believe he’ll eventually slide over to third as he continues to physically mature, the Phillies will have him split time at the two spots on the left side of the infield. He has the arm and actions, not to mention the offensive profile, to fit in well at the hot corner.

Jackson Miller was a second-round pick of the Reds in 2020 out of J.W. Mitchell High School in Florida. His younger brother Aidan was considered a better prospect, especially after a strong summer on the showcase circuit that included winning All-American Game MVP honors and a Home Run Deby title during All-Star festivities in Los Angeles. A broken left hamate forced him out for most of his senior year of high school, which may have worked to the Phillies’ benefit as he likely would not have been available to be selected No. 27 overall and signed for $3.1 million.
