Player Spotlight: Hardin Valley 2015 OF/RHP John Millett



By Doug Hall
Tennessee Director of Scouting

John Millett, OF/RHP, Hardin Valley Academy, 2015

At 6-foot-3, 190-pounds, Millett has the frame that projects well at the college level, and he showed he has some of the tools as well. At the 2014 Tennessee Smokies High School Baseball Showcase, Millett put his speed on display when he posted an impressive 6.89 60-yard dash, and his performance on the mound really opened some eyes. Millett ran his fastball up to 87 mph, and with his projectable frame, there could certainly be more in the tank in the near future.   

Millett, who just transferred to Hardin Valley from Kentucky, could be a late bloomer, and with the intangibles of size, speed, and velocity, it's hard to predict where he may land. But he will undoubtedly have the opportunity to be on someone's roster in the fall of 2015.
