Scouting Report: Mason Miller
San Diego Padres | RP
Overall
Summary
Mason Miller, San Diego Padres closer, is having an exceptional 2026 season with elite performance metrics. Through 18.2 innings, he has posted a 0.96 ERA with 38 strikeouts and a .121 batting average allowed, putting him on pace for one of the greatest relief seasons in MLB history. He had a 37⅓ scoreless inning streak before allowing two runs against the Cubs. Miller is working on pitch sequencing, planning to use his elite 101 mph fastball more frequently (currently at 51.5% slider usage) to further elevate his game. Despite some recent inconsistency and control issues (two walks in a recent save), he remains one of baseball's most dominant late-game pitchers.
