The New York Mets were one of the teams pushing to trade for Mason Miller at the trade deadline, and insider Ken Rosenthal explained why it fell through.

Mason Miller is right in the middle of the National League wild-card race as a member of the San Diego Padres, but he was reportedly almost part of the same race with a different team.

In a move that stunned the baseball world, the San Diego Padres traded for elite closer Mason Miller from the Athletics despite the Philadelphia Phillies, New York Yankees and New York Mets pushing hard for him.
