MASON MILLER NEWS

Escapes with eighth save Miller recorded his eighth save of the season in Friday's 6-5 win over the White Sox, giving up two runs on two hits in the ninth inning. He struck out one.

Impact The A's built a three-run cushion before Miller entered the game, and he needed every bit of it after Brooks Baldwin turned on a 99 mph fastball and ripped it down the right-field line for a two-run blast. It was the first homer, and the first runs, Miller had allowed in 2025, but he remains a perfect 8-for-8 in converting save chances with a 2.00 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and dominant 18:1 K:BB over nine innings.

Nails down seventh save Miller collected the save in Wednesday's win over the Rangers after allowing one hit in a scoreless ninth inning, striking out three.

Impact The hard-throwing right-hander overwhelmed the first two batters he faced, retiring them on just seven pitches, but a slumping Joc Pederson did tag him for a double Wednesday. Miller has still been spectacular to open the season, producing a 0.00 ERA, 0.63 WHIP and 17:1 K:BB across his first seven frames. Miller has also gone a perfect 7-for-7 on save opportunities, giving him a strong grip on the closer's role for the Athletics.

Locks down sixth save Miller struck out two and didn't allow a baserunner in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save Saturday against the Brewers.

Impact Luis Severino held Milwaukee to a single tally over eight innings, and Miller entered for the ninth and shut the door with little drama. The flamethrowing righty touched 102.1 mph with his fastball and has yet to give up a run through seven appearances this season. Miller hasn't even allowed a hit in four of those outings and has a dominant 14:1 K:BB while converting all six save chances.

Mows down ChiSox for save Miller struck out all three batters he faced in a perfect inning to earn a save against the White Sox on Wednesday.

Impact Miller entered the game with a two-run lead in the ninth inning and retired the side in order on 12 pitches. White Sox batters looked overwhelmed against the fireballing closer, as all three batters Chicago sent to plate went down on strikes. Miller got six whiffs on just 12 total pitches, and he has now struck out at least one batter -- and allowed zero runs -- in all six of his outings this season. He's dominated with a 12:1 K:BB over six frames to cement his status as one of the league's top closers.

Records another save Miller earned a save against the Rockies on Saturday, allowing one hit and striking out two batters over one scoreless inning.

Impact Miller had a relatively easy time preserving a three-run lead -- he gave up a one-out infield single but needed just 13 pitches to retire the side. The save was the second in as many days and third overall for the flamethrowing righty, who has yet to give up a run through four innings this season. He's been as dominant as ever with an 8:1 K:BB and just two hits allowed over that span.

Notches second save Miller walked one batter and struck out another in a scoreless eleventh inning to earn a save Friday against the Rockies.

Impact Miller had to wait two frames more than he usually does to enter Friday's contest, but he still secured all three outs in 12 pitches to lock down his second save of the young season. The walk he surrendered represents only the second man he's allowed to reach base compared to the six he's sent down on three strikes through three innings.

Dominates for first save Miller picked up a save against the Mariners on Saturday, allowing one hit and striking out three batters in one scoreless inning.

Impact Though Miller gave up a one-out single, he was locked in during the outing, throwing 14 of 17 pitches for strikes and getting all three of his outs via strikeout. The flamethrowing righty ramped up to 102.2 mph with his fastball and got five whiffs during his limited time on the mound. Despite playing for an Athletics team that isn't expected to be a contender, Miller is one of fantasy's most desirable closers after notching 28 saves in 31 chances and posting an elite 14.4 K/9 over 55 appearances last season.

Impact Miller's first fastball of the outing -- clocked at 98.8 mph -- was hit for a home run off the bat of Josh Smith. After that, Miller ramped up the velocity, consistently hitting triple digits and topping out at 102.9 mph. Miller solidified himself in the ninth inning for the A's with a breakout in 2024 when he racked up 28 saves and 104 strikeouts in 55 appearances, and he is being drafted as a top-five closer in many leagues this spring.
