The San Diego Padres are acquiring closer Mason Miller and starting pitcher JP Sears from the A’s, ESPN’s Jeff Passan reports. The A’s will reportedly receive shortstop Leodalis De Vries, baseball’s No. 3 overall prospect.

NEW YORK – Out to improve their pitching, Thursday’s MLB trade deadline took the Yankees on a unique path. They tripled down on controllable, high-end relievers – chiefly David Bednar and Camilo Doval - without obtaining a starter or a lefty bullpen arm.

With the Yankees needing help in the bullpen, the team will reportedly get David Bednar in a trade with the Pirates before the 2025 deadline.
