Career

Miller was born in San Pablo, California. He was selected by the Rangers in the second round of the 1975 MLB Draft out of Harry Ells High School in Richmond, California. His only major league home run came in his last career at bat.

Miller was traded along with Adrian Devine and Tommy Boggs from the Rangers to the Braves in the first four-team blockbuster deal in Major League Baseball history on December 8, 1977 that also involved the Pittsburgh Pirates, New York Mets and a total of eleven players changing teams. The Rangers received Al Oliver and Nelson Norman from the Pirates and Jon Matlack from the Mets. The Pirates acquired Bert Blyleven from the Rangers and John Milner from the Mets. The Mets got from the Braves Willie Montañez and from the Rangers Tom Grieve and Ken Henderson who was sent to New York to complete the transaction three months later on March 15, 1978.[1][2]

Miller also played 14 minor league seasons between 1975 and 1990, including stints in the Mexican League and Venezuelan Winter Baseball.
