What does it actually take to make it all the way to the big leagues?
Tiger alum Erik Miller has lived it — from the Rawlings Tigers, to Stanford, through the minor leagues, and now pitching in the majors.
In the interview, Erik talks about the parts of that journey young players don’t always see: training when you don’t feel like it, learning how your focus has to change as you move up, watching how big leaguers prepare, and dealing with everything in baseball that’s outside your control.
His biggest message is pretty simple:
Control what you can control.
There’s a lot in this one for players at every level.
