Aidan Miller Swinging a Bat, Still No Timetable for a Return
Philadelphia Phillies infield prospect Aidan Miller (back), who is on the seven-day injured list at Triple-A Lehigh Valley to begin the year, has started to swing a bat, but there remains no timetable for his return, per MLB.com. Miller, who is the Phillies' top prospect and No. 21 overall in baseball per MLB Pipeline, is dealing with a sore lower back. The Phillies are going to play it safe with the 21-year-old shortstop. The former 27th overall pick in 2023 hit .259/.382/.427 with an .810 OPS, 13 home runs, 41 RBI, 74 runs scored, and 52 stolen bases in 108 games played for Double-A Reading in 2025. Once Miller gets healthy, he'll have a shot to eventually replace Alec Bohm at the hot corner in the major leagues, and he offers fantasy managers a more intriguing power/speed profile. He's a quality defensive shortstop prospect, but he's blocked at the major-league level by Trea Turner. Miller is a must-stash in dynasty/keeper leagues in 2026 while he rehabs his back injury.
