This time last year Aidan Miller was finishing up his high school career and preparing for the 2023 MLB Draft. Less than a year later, the soon-to-be 20-year-old infielder is tearing up the Minor Leagues and raising his prospect ranking in the process.
Miller has jumped from No. 61 to No. 47 in the mid-season update to MLB Pipeline’s Top 100 Prospects rankings. Miller is now the Phillies’ second highest-rated prospect behind righty Andrew Painter (No. 18). A jump into the Top 30 prospects is certainly plausible for the New Port Richey, Florida native.

In 35-games this season for the Low-A Clearwater Threshers of the Florida State League, Miller is slashing .296/.427/.515 with five homers, 14 doubles, 25 RBI, and 10 stolen bases. In the month of May, Miller slashed .309/.478/.588 with three homers, 16 RBI, and a 1.066 OPS. The righty is hitting lefties and righties at a similar clip— 2.78 against lefties and .306 against righties. With his rise in the rankings, Miller could be looking at a trip to the Jersey Shore and the High-A Jersey Shore BlueClaws.
