Release: 06/10/2008
Senior starting pitcher Steven Miller came to terms on a minor league deal with the Kansas City Royals and will report for duty with one of Kansas City’s Rookie Ball teams, the Pioneer League's Idaho Falls Chukars.

Miller was not selected in last week’s Major League Baseball Draft, but signed following a try-out earlier this week. The hard-throwing right-hander is Princeton’s leader in career appearances (58), pitching out of the bullpen for two seasons before becoming a starter for the final two.

Miller and the Chukars open their season on June 17 against the Casper Ghosts. Miller was 3-2 with a 4.36 ERA as a senior. He struck out a team-high 55 batters in 53.2 innings. For his career, Miller went 10-15 with a 4.06 ERA and 140 strikeouts in 175.2 innings of work. He also recorded three saves.

Miller becomes the third member of the Princeton baseball Class of 2008 to become affiliated with a Major League team. Classmates Spencer Lucian (New York Yankees) and Christian Staehely (Seattle Mariners) were each drafted last week and are attending mini-camps this week prior to their assignments. The trio joins six other Tigers currently playing at the Major or Minor League level.
