There’s yet another new name to add to the list of targets for the Oakland A’s rotation. The team has “had talks” with free agent pitcher Shelby Miller, reports Ben Ross of NBCS.
The A’s are casting a wide net in their search for starters. They’ve been publicly connected with several free agents already, including Matt Harvey (analysis), Clay Buchholz (analysis), Gio Gonzalez (Slusser link), and their own recently departed arms (Trevor Cahill, Edwin Jackson, Brett Anderson). Now Miller is on the radar as well, at least enough to have been in contact with the club once at some point, and there are sure to be more names to come.
