MLB Rumors: Royals Shopping Pitcher
At this point of the season, the Kansas City Royals have an 11-19 record and are likely to be sellers at this year's trade deadline. One pitcher who could be on the move because of this is Brad Keller.
During the offseason, Keller will be entering his final arbitration year and then will be eligible for unrestricted free agency in 2023. With his trade value being at what could be its highest from here, this could spark the Royals to elect to move him now instead of next year.
Although Keller sports a 1-3 record, he has pitched very well this season. Along with his losing record, he has a very good 2.70 ERA to go along with 2.70 ERA. If he can keep this kind of season up from here, it will only increase interest around the league for his services. Let's see if the 26-year-old gets moved this summer because of all of this.
