Mason Miller humorous about starting role after NL Reliever of the Year honor

Mason Miller, a standout reliever for the San Diego Padres, joked about his chances of becoming a starting pitcher during an appearance on Foul Territory. He contrasted his role with Milwaukee Brewers starter Jacob Misiorowski, who won the National League Cy Young Award in 2026. Miller, who finished the season with a 1.67 ERA and 38 saves, acknowledged Misiorowski's impressive consistency and strike-throwing ability. The Padres were eliminated by the Brewers in the NLDS, and Miller reflected on the contrasting postseason trajectories of the two pitchers, highlighting the challenges facing San Diego as they prepare for the offseason.
