Miranda is a big-bodied infielder who has made a name for himself as a solid defender and hitter with lots of potential. Specifically, scouts note the teen's pitch recognition and composure on offense are advanced for a player at his age. Overall, Miranda shows a good approach at the plate and a knack for managing the strike zone.

He's displayed the ability to drive the ball to all fields, and scouts have pointed out a significant uptick in his athleticism this year. Miranda continues to make strides as a third baseman, and there's reason to believe he'll remain at the hot corner as he progresses through the Minor Leagues. Miranda will also benefit from receiving daily instruction from his new club. His arm strength is expected to improve as he matures and fills into his 6-foot-3 frame.

Miranda is trained by Enrique Soto in Bani, Dominican Republic.

The Tigers also announced the signings of shortstop Jose Dickson (6-foot-2, 158 pounds), outfielder Jonathan Moya (5-11, 203) and right-hander Albert Ramos (6-3, 185), three unranked prospects out of the Dominican Republic. Detroit also signed right-hander Branell Anderson (6-4, 180) out of Nicaragua, the team's second Nicaraguan signing in 12 months, joining Duque Hebbert.
