The Oakland Athletics are one of several teams expected to be sellers ahead of Major League Baseball's July 30 trade deadline, but the asking price of the A's for All-Star reliever Mason Miller remains sky-high, according to a report from ESPN's Jeff Passan.
The 25-year-old Miller has impressed in his first full season in the big leagues, earning an All-Star appearance thanks to his 2.21 ERA over 40.2 innings pitched, which includes 70 strikeouts and 15 saves for the cellar-dwelling A's. His strong performance this season has led many industry insiders to believe that Oakland would consider moving him, but his asking price has scared teams off.
