The Padres’ trade deadline gamble heats up as they weigh keeping star reliever Mason Miller—or cashing in on a pitcher who’s been lights out this season. With a fastball that dominates and a slider that vanishes, Miller is the top bullpen asset available—and he’s locked in for three more seasons. The Padres, riding a four-game win streak and closing in on the Wild Card, may hesitate to sell, especially after losing top prospect Leo De Vries last year. But if they do trade him, they could still move Adrian Morejon, a lefty with elite stuff set to become a free agent. Teams like the Yankees, Pirates, and Mariners are circling, desperate for bullpen upgrades. Miller’s price tag? Sky-high—and the Padres might just be the ones who walk away with the most.
