Miller, the Phillies’ top prospect, has been dealing with a lower back injury that has kept him sidelined to begin the 2026 season. He remains without a clear timeline for return, but it is a positive sign that he could begin swinging this week, as Thomson confirmed he is doing everything except that. Miller owns a .265/.383/.434 slash line with 25 home runs and 86 stolen bases across 238 minor league games.

In 2025, Miller posted a .264/.392/.433 slash line with 14 home runs and 59 stolen bases across 116 games between Double-A and Triple-A.
