About this listen
On C-Level Up, hosts J.D. Miller and Mike Kreissl welcome Steve Miller, Director of International Scouting for the Tampa Bay Rays, to explore the wild world of international baseball scouting. Steve shares stories from his early days as a college coach to clocking 200+ days a year on the road hunting for top talent in places like the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, and beyond. Listeners get a peek behind the scenes into what it’s like scouting the next big league stars and the surprising lessons learned along the way.
Steve brings humor and grit to tales of tracking down players and what it takes to build trust with young talent from diverse backgrounds. He opens up about the “one that got away,” his strategies for mentoring rookie scouts, and the critical mix of instinct and empathy needed to thrive in scouting. It's a fun, insightful dive into the realities and rewards of scouting on a global stage.
