Would be natural at 2nd. I said in a thread last week, LSU needs to move to that 6’2” rangy guy with pop, like the guy at Florida

Odds are against him becoming a MLB regular but could make it as a utility IF
Could be the shorter version of Doug Flynn

It’s been talked about a good bit. He’s very short, his base running is lack luster and his bat needs work. Period. The biggest con he has is measurable. If you are going to be short you have to make up for it in every other measurable and he can’t.


Can’t believe this has 17 upvotes to 2 downvotes

He can and will play SS in professional baseball. His height isn’t a huge issue. Hitting for power with wood will be the biggest question he faces.

At the end of the day he walks more than he K’s(108:86), and has hit .305/410/514

This is much more well rounded player than you give him credit for. MLB teams yearns for guys that can play the position and be a hard out at the plate. He fits that bill.

Yes certainly and it would also help if he had Trindon H speed or Spud Webb hops. He would be the shortest player in the MLB

I saw where MLB ranked 200 top prospects for 2026. There was no Milam & a number of SEC SS were picked in these rankings. Don’t know much about HS infielders but definitely was a bit shocked he not listed Might be good news tho , if he, his family & advisors decide returning to Tigers is in his best interest


He’s a 2B at best on the next level.
