With just hours remaining until the Major League Baseball trade deadline, the San Diego Padres and Athletics have pulled off a massive stunner, with the A's sending All-Star closer Mason Miller to San Diego for a prospect package headlined by the No.

The San Diego Padres acquired All-Star closer Mason Miller and starting pitcher JP Sears through a trade with the Athletics, the teams announced Thursday.

The Royals promoted Fermin to the major leagues in 2022. He was entrenched as KC’s backup catcher for the last three seasons. Last season, he was a finalist for the Rawlings Gold Glove Award and has drawn praise as a top defensive catcher.
