Mason Miller, coming off an All-Star campaign as the Oakland Athletics' closer, is reportedly not a candidate to get moved into the team's starting rotation.
The Athletics are lacking starting pitchers, but they apparently won't be poaching the best of their own bullpen arms to fill the void.
That decision paid off big time, as Miller went 2-2 with a 2.49 ERA, 0.877 WHIP, 14.4 strikeouts per nine innings, 28 saves and a 2.4 WAR this season. He is one of the top contenders to win AL Rookie of the Year, having already been given the associated honor by The Sporting News."We’re not talking about moving him back into a starting role," Forst told Shea at the MLB General Manager Meetings in San Antonio this week.
Miller very nearly achieved that feat in 2024, but hit the injured list with a fractured pinky in July. While his elbow and shoulder both held up, he still only tossed 65.0 innings.
