Athletics haven't started extension talks with Mason Miller

yardbarker.com

The Oakland Athletics have not yet begun extension talks with closer Mason Miller, despite recent large contracts given to other players. Miller is seen as a top candidate for an extension after the team signed Brent Rooker and Lawrence Butler. Miller, who has five years of team control remaining, expressed openness to discussions but has not been approached by the A's. He is eligible for early arbitration next winter as a Super Two player. While Miller's performance has been strong, he has a history of injuries that may make the A's hesitant to commit to a long-term deal. The current record for relief pitcher extensions is five years for $20 million, set by Emmanuel Clase.
