13 APR 2023 · Anderson Miller was a highly touted prospect out of Western Kentucky University. So much that the Kansas City Royals took him in the 3rd round of the 2015 MLB Draft. Miller got to Triple-A in 2021 and decided to elect for free agency after that. It was a tough market and he found himself playing independent ball. On top of that, he had just become a dad, was trying to finish his degree, and working at Costco to make ends meet to make sure his family had everything they needed. He ended up signing a minor league free agent deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers right before spring training. Jared and Caleb sit down with Miller to have a real discussion about how he pushed through adversity, things in his life that allowed him to change his perspective and outlook on life, and what has allowed him to keep pursuing his dreams.
