Mitch Keller Being Discussed In Trade Talks
1 year agoPittsburgh Pirates pitcher Mitch Keller is being discussed in trade talks by the team's front office leading up to the Aug.1 MLB trade deadline. It's unclear how far talks with interested parties have gone to this point but it appears the club is at least willing to listen on the 2023 All-Star. Keller has largely enjoyed a nice season, working to a 4.01 ERA across 21 innings of work. However, he also sports a 3.82 SIERA while his 25.4% K% is his highest mark since debuting with 11 starts in the 2019 season. His ERA has risen sharply over his last two starts as he has yielded 14 earned runs across his last 11 innings of work. Surely, interested clubs are looking closer at his overall body of work this season, which has been stellar.
