Jon Heyman of the New York Post hung the readers in the obvious context in A message on your Twitter / X account Late Wednesday on the west coast: discussed them of a business that would send Miller to a rivaled team before the 18 -hour trade date (and).

Miller’s pretender is a surprise. Despite the sending of three rescue launchers (closer to Robert Suarez and the men of the Jason Adam and Adrian Morejon installation) to the National League Stars team earlier this month, the San Diego Padres “work on a possible business” to Miller, according to Heyman.
Ken Rosenthal and Dennis Lin of Athletics reported on Wednesday that Miller’s most difficult “grows” mlb. They also pointed out that the paadres simultaneously continue the Jarren Duran field players from the Red Sox from Boston and Steven Kwan of the Cleveland Guardians in Trade Talks.

But the sudden unavailability of Miller, who saved 20 games this season when the A featured the playoffs, suggests that the Padres proposal for Miller has legs.

The rapid 101.1 / h ball of Miller and the hard bit cursor gave a withdrawal rate of 39.1 to 39.1. It is much better than that of Suarez, who has an MPM of 3.43 and a withdrawal rate of 26.6% in his last season before he was eligible for the Free Agency.
Given the depth of the Padres enclosure, it is easy to imagine that Miller’s prosecution by the Padres would create a redundancy which would allow the general manager AJ PRELLER to exchange Suarez, Adam or perhaps the Gaucher Morejon in the hope of upgrading one of the other positions of need of the paadres.

Padres do not have a deep agricultural system. Rosenthal and Lin speculated that “the capacity of the Padres to land Duran, Kwan or Miller could depend on their desire to yield (Leo) from Vries”, – a prospect of 19 years which is universally classified among the first 20 of the MLB.
If he does not want to move from Vries, Preller may need to involve another team to win a left field player like Kwan or Duran, in addition to a recipient who offers a stronger bat than holders Elias Diaz and Martin Maldonado.
For the moment, Miller’s padres are continuing to be on the front burner. If an agreement is concluded, expect more dominoes to fall in San Diego.
The Padres left Thursday after winning their fifth consecutive game at home against the New York Mets.
