San Diego Padres closer Mason Miller has recorded 38 saves this season, positioning him as a leading contender for the Reliever of the Year award. The right-hander, wearing number 22, has been a dominant presence at the back of the Padres bullpen throughout the 2026 campaign.

A key moment came on July 28 at Petco Park, where Miller struck out Colorado Rockies batter TJ Rumfield to secure a ninth-inning victory. His consistent performance and high save total give him a statistical advantage in the award race, though the final voting results remain pending.
