Phillies Top Prospect Aidan Miller Set for Back Procedure

Phillies top prospect Aidan Miller faces a setback as he prepares for a minimally invasive back procedure this Friday to address persistent disc pain and inflammation. The treatment, which uses heat to block pain signals, is aimed at long-term relief after other methods failed. Miller, ranked 15th overall by MLB Pipeline, was on track to potentially debut this season — but now his return to games is projected at six to eight weeks, followed by a full rehab restart. Though he played through minor soreness last year, this time the injury has sidelined him longer, and with spring training just beginning, his timeline has shifted dramatically. The Phillies won’t rush him — even if he’s back in two months, he’ll be starting over as the team’s most promising young hitter.
