• Royals' Brad Keller: Wins final start of season

  1D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Keller (9-6) picked up the win Sunday against the Tigers, lasting seven innings and giving up just one run on three hits and three walks while striking out a pair. The start will wind up as his final assignment of the season, Jeffrey Flanagan of MLB.com reports. Keller retired the first nine batters he faced before allowing a short rally to start the fourth inning. A double play cut that rally short after just one run, and he remained out of serious trouble for the remainder of the outing. He'll finish the season with an excellent 3.08 ERA in 140.1 innings, a superb return for a Rule 5 draft pick.

  Keller allowed four runs on four hits and one walk while striking out seven over six innings Monday against Pittsburgh. He didn't factor into the decision. Keller gave up a run in the third, a pair in the fourth and one in the seventh prior to exiting with a one-run lead. He tossed 71 of 109 pitches for strikes. The 23-year-old had been on a roll prior to Monday's outing, as he'd surrendered two or fewer runs in his previous six starts (1.85 ERA with 29 punchouts over 39 frames). He'll look to get back on track Saturday in Detroit.
