Miller is slashing .261/.400/.457 with three home runs and 16 steals in his last 25 games for Double-A Reading.
Miller was known more for his bat than his speed when the Phillies selected him in the first round a couple years ago, but he's been running wild this year for the Fightin Phils. He got off to a slow start at Double-A, but Miller has come on strong lately and is walking at an 18.3 percent clip over this 25-game stretch. Miller has only played shortstop since getting drafted, but there's a chance he will eventually move to third base.

Rotowire
The Phillies reassigned Miller to minor-league camp Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Miller was one of a handful of cuts the Phillies made as they trim down the number of bodies in big-league camp. The top prospect finished last season at Double-A Reading and is likely headed back there to start the 2025 campaign. Miller is tracking toward a potential debut in 2026.

Phillies' Aidan Miller: Best hitter in Florida State League
Rotowire
Miller is slashing .337/.420/.570 with four home runs, nine steals and a 19 percent strikeout rate in 100 plate appearances for Single-A Clearwater.
Seen as one of the top prep hitters in last year's draft, Miller played only 10 games at Single-A last year, and he has dominated in a return to the Florida State League. Only Nick Morabito, who is over a year older than Miller and has since been promoted to High-A, has a higher wRC+ among qualified FSL hitters, so Miller should be getting his own promotion to High-A in the coming weeks. While most evaluators expect Miller to end up at third base, he has played only shortstop and designated hitter thus far in pro ball.
