Keller (2-1) notched the win Sunday against the Rays, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks in seven innings. He struck out five.

Scouting Report

His fastball has both great velocity and exceptional movement, and he is able to command it as well. Also adds a great curve, and together his fastball-curve combination produce a wealth of strikeouts. His changeup needs more work, however. While his frame is solid, he has been somewhat prone to injury so far in his development.

Long Range Potential: Talented, dominant right-hander with great upside.
