With the trade deadline bearing down, Athletics closer Mason Miller remains one of the most tantalizing names still on the board — and both the New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays are in pursuit. The Athletics have been demanding top-tier young pitching in exchange for Miller, who is under team control through 2029, according to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal. The New York Mets have also reportedly checked in on Miller. Rosenthal notes that the Yankees' primary focus is “adding pitching,” not subtracting it.
