Kansas City Royals pitcher Brad Keller had a strong start in Wednesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. He pitched six innings, allowing two hits, three walks and no runs while striking out three. He's now made two starts this year after beginning the year on the Injured List while recovering from a positive COVID-19 test. He's won both starts and is yet to give up a run, posting a WHIP of just 0.91. He should be on the radar of any fantasy owner in need of pitching depth. In shallow leagues, you'll want to see a little bit more before pulling the trigger on him, but he's worth a shot in deeper leagues right now. His next start will be Tuesday, again facing the Reds.--Andrew Ericksen - RotoBaller

According to Jacob Zanolla of Cubs Insider, the Chicago Cubs have signed right-handed pitcher Brad Keller to a minor-league contract that includes an invite to spring training. Keller spent the 2024 season with the White and Red Sox. Across 41 1/3 innings of work, the 29-year-old posted a 5.44 ERA with a 1.52 WHIP. He struck out 32 batters with a solid 7.8% walk rate. He also generated ground balls at a strong 49.7% rate, which was above the average marks. Across 68 2/3 innings at the Triple-A level, Keller posted a 3.28 ERA and a 1.21 WHIP. After posting a career-best 2.47 ERA and a 1.02 WHIP during the 2020 shortened season, Keller has had trouble finding consistency at the major league level. Fantasy managers should expect Keller to compete for a spot in the bullpen during spring training.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

The Boston Red Sox selected the contract of right-hander Brad Keller from Triple-A Worcester on Monday and designated pitcher Joely Rodriguez for assignment in a corresponding move. The Red Sox recently re-signed Keller to a minor-league deal after he previously rejected an assignment to Triple-A. The 29-year-old now finds himself back in the big leagues late in the 2024 season, where he'll likely serve in a low-leverage bullpen role for the BoSox. Keller began the year pitching for the Chicago White Sox before joining Boston. In his 10 relief appearances (20 2/3 innings) for the Red Sox in 2024, he hasn't been very good, allowing 13 earned runs on 24 hits (three home runs) while striking out 17 and walking seven. Fantasy managers in all formats can continue to avoid him.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The Boston Red Sox re-signed right-hander Brad Keller to a minor-league deal on Tuesday after refusing his option to Triple-A Worcester, according to a source. Keller will now report to Worcester as minor-league pitching depth. In 20 2/3 relief innings for the BoSox this year, Keller has allowed 13 earned runs on 24 hits (three homers) while walking seven and striking out 17. In 15 total appearances (two starts) with Boston and the Chicago White Sox in 2024, he's sporting a 5.30 ERA (5.48 FIP), a 1.45 WHIP, one save and a 30:13 K:BB in 37 1/3 innings. The 29-year-old former eighth-round pick by the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2013 just hasn't been good of late and is nowhere near the fantasy radar. Keller has a career 4.32 ERA and 1.45 WHIP with a weak 17.2% strikeout rate and 10.1% walk rate in seven big-league seasons.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Free Agent starting pitcher Brad Keller was signed by the Boston Red Sox on Sunday, May 26. Zack Kelly was optioned to Triple-A Worcester in the corresponding move. Keller opened the season with the Chicago White Sox primarily in a long relief role but did make two starts. Through his two starts, he posted a hefty 8.32 ERA and 1.73 WHIP. As a reliever, he looked much better as he tossed eight innings to the tune of a 1.13 ERA and 1.00 WHIP. The 28-year-old should be expected to be in a similar role in Boston, as the Red Sox rotation currently has five designated starters. Keller could be worth adding if he makes spot starts during the summer in AL-only formats in the right matchup but should usually be left on all waiver wires as his projected role will not provide him much fantasy value.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
