D-backs minor-league report: Adam Miller blowing 'em away at Mobile
http://www.foxsports.com/arizona/st...rt-adam-miller-mobile-bay-bears-101-mp-051415
On a two-year church mission to Cuernavaca, Mexico, right-hander Adam Miller became fluent in Spanish but found himself isolated from baseball, his sport of choice.
Since returning to the U.S. in 2011, Miller has become fluent in fastball, first at Brigham Young University and now with the Diamondbacks, who selected him in the 20th round of the 2013 draft. If he does not have the strongest arm in the system, he is very near the top.
Miller has hit 100 mph numerous times the last two years and has topped out at 101 this year while taking over as the closer at Double-A Mobile when Enrique Burgos was promoted to the Diamondbacks several weeks ago.
At 25, Miller is one of the oldest players in the prospect-heavy Southern League, which can be a quick conduit to the majors. But when your fastball is in triple digits, age is not the first number scouts notice.
