RHP Colin Miller (Hampshire) stands 6-foot-3, 170 pounds, with upside that’s easy to dream on, given his size and the peripherals on the fastball. The right-hander cruised throughout his ‘pen at 87-90 mph (90.6 max) from a quick ¾ slot that produced natural arm-side action that he consistently landed inside the strike zone. His slider sits in the 76-77 mph range while playing off a sharp 10/4 plane, kept mostly down with complementing depth. Miller’s changeup pairs extremely well off his fastball, mimicking arm speed heavy sink to the arm-side, 80-82 mph.

During the first day of our PBR at The Rock 16u Championships, Miller continued to assert himself as a name to follow.

His curveball had sharp 11/5 break and sat 64-66 mph.
