Brad Keller Inks Minors Pact With White Sox
8 months agoThe Chicago White Sox have signed right-hander Brad Keller to a minor-league deal with an invitation to big-league spring training. Keller has spent the first six seasons of his career with the Kansas City Royals and had his 2023 season shortened due to a shoulder injury. He posted a 4.57 ERA in 11 outings (nine starts) last season and walked an eye-popping 21.3% of the batters he faced on the season. Keller is a ground-ball pitcher who sports a 51.7% ground-ball rate for his career as his strikeout rate sits at just 17.2%. In 150 MLB appearances (114 starts), Keller sports a 4.27 ERA but only a 6.9% K-BB% in that time. He could battle for the fifth spot in the White Sox rotation or serve as a long reliever in 2024.
