With closer Mason Miller landing on the IL, the trade speculation is over.
The Oakland Athletics have announced that All Star closer Mason Miller has been placed on the 15-day IL, retroactive to July 23 with a broken left hand. According to MLB.com's, the injury is a fractured left pinky, and it happened on Monday when "he put his hand down awkwardly on the training table while getting ready to do an exercise."
In the clubhouse on Tuesday, Miller was seen wearing protective gear that was about the length of a half-cast , but also appeared to be made of a mesh material. We noticed this addition as he was walking out for pregame warmups. We did not see what that routine consisted of on that day, or how limited he was in those warmups.
Miller, 25, is 1-1 on the season with a 2.21 ERA, a 0.84 WHIP, and 70 strikeouts across 40 2/3 innings. There has no timetable for his return at this time. While the idea of trading the closer has been fodder for months now, ever since the A's visited New York in April, that chatter should dissolve as the Trade Deadline looms just a few days away. The A's, but this injury should remove his name completely from any potential rumors.
Miller is tied for second in the Majors among relievers in strikeouts and his 306 pitches of 100 miles per hour or more are the most among all pitchers. The A’s lone All-Star, Miller was the winning pitcher for the American League as he struck out two, including Shohei Ohtani, in a scoreless fifth inning in the All-Star Game.Jason is the host of the Locked on A's podcast, and the managing editor of Inside the A's.
