Padres Hold Onto Miller | San Diego Padres News

San Diego Padres’ hot start has cooled to 52-53, leaving them third in the division and trade deadline buzz swirling—especially around closer Mason Miller, whose 26 saves and 0.84 ERA have made him a coveted commodity. Teams from Brewers to Dodgers are circling, but Padres’ GM AJ Preller seems reluctant to move him, possibly due to new ownership.

With only five wins in their last ten, the August 3 deadline could be pivotal—and Miller might just stay put, offering a huge boost to their bullpen.
