Padres Put Mason Miller on the Bereavement List
The San Diego Padres announced on Monday that they placed right-handed closer Mason Miller on the bereavement/family medical leave list and recalled left-hander Kyle Hart from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move. Miller could be away from the Padres for the next three to seven days as he tends to a personal family matter. If any save situations come up with Miller away, they will likely go to right-hander Jason Adam, who has pitched well in a setup role for the Friars again in 2026. The 27-year-old Miller continues to make hitters look silly with a triple-digit fastball and an extremely nasty slider, and he's currently sporting a 0.90 ERA (0.37 FIP), 0.80 WHIP, a National League-leading 19 saves, 59 strikeouts, and 12 walks in 30 innings pitched in his first full year in San Diego. Miller ranks second in all of baseball in saves and has not blown a save opportunity all year. After being acquired from the A's midway through last season, Miller had a 0.77 ERA (1.12 FIP), 0.73 WHIP, two saves, 45 strikeouts, and 10 walks in 23 1/3 innings pitched. He's one of the most dominant pitchers in all of baseball, regardless of role.
