I'm not sure if the expectation is for him not to start the year in the rotation, though I expect he will be there. As for this talent ranking, Miller hasn't shown anything yet to be rated A or B level youth talent. He's still very much a prospect with great upside. You have a good point on Miner & Zumaya though looking at other teams he seems to have neglected most team's bullpen pitchers that I would expect to be on the list. Some are there though, like Papelbon. Bill James didn’t offer a projection for Miller for next year, at least that I could find.
