Mason Miller will be one of the top relievers available if the Athletics decide to make him available. And it sounds as though they might be open to at least fielding offers.

The Phillies are not looking for band-aids for their bullpen. They have tried that. It's been a really long time since Philadelphia made a trade deadline splash, and it's possible they target some of the best relievers in the game who can help the team in 2025 and beyond.

If the A's are to achieve their goal of being competitive in the near future--potentially in 2026--then trading Miller may make them better in other areas, but would also create a hole in the bullpen.

Even if they remain in the playoff hunt, Arizona will need to turn at least a few of their expiring contracts into viable pieces for 2026.

With Philadelphia willing to trade its 'prospect chips,' an MLB analyst suggests dealing Mick Abel for Athletics closer Mason Miller.
