Erik Miller's introduction to the Boston Red Sox began with a television alert he never expected to see. Boston acquired the 28-year-old left-handed reliever from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for former top prospect Marcelo Mayer. Miller received little warning that a deal was coming, learning about it while preparing for another game with the Giants.
"I didn't really know until it flashed up on the TV when I was getting ready to go out and play catch," Miller said Tuesday, according to Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald. "It wasn't really much of a heads up, but that's kind of how it is with some of these things."
The surprising news soon gave way to excitement. Miller left San Francisco for a Boston team playing meaningful games and added another intriguing option to an already formidable bullpen.
So, who exactly is the newest member of the Red Sox?
