Red Sox Call Up Brad Keller

The Boston Red Sox selected the contract of right-hander Brad Keller from Triple-A Worcester on Monday and designated pitcher Joely Rodriguez for assignment in a corresponding move. The Red Sox recently re-signed Keller to a minor-league deal after he previously rejected an assignment to Triple-A. The 29-year-old now finds himself back in the big leagues late in the 2024 season, where he'll likely serve in a low-leverage bullpen role for the BoSox. Keller began the year pitching for the Chicago White Sox before joining Boston. In his 10 relief appearances (20 2/3 innings) for the Red Sox in 2024, he hasn't been very good, allowing 13 earned runs on 24 hits (three home runs) while striking out 17 and walking seven. Fantasy managers in all formats can continue to avoid him.

Brad Keller Re-Signs With Red Sox

The Boston Red Sox re-signed right-hander Brad Keller to a minor-league deal on Tuesday after refusing his option to Triple-A Worcester, according to a source. Keller will now report to Worcester as minor-league pitching depth. In 20 2/3 relief innings for the BoSox this year, Keller has allowed 13 earned runs on 24 hits (three homers) while walking seven and striking out 17. In 15 total appearances (two starts) with Boston and the Chicago White Sox in 2024, he's sporting a 5.30 ERA (5.48 FIP), a 1.45 WHIP, one save and a 30:13 K:BB in 37 1/3 innings. The 29-year-old former eighth-round pick by the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2013 just hasn't been good of late and is nowhere near the fantasy radar. Keller has a career 4.32 ERA and 1.45 WHIP with a weak 17.2% strikeout rate and 10.1% walk rate in seven big-league seasons.

Brad Keller Signs With Boston

Free Agent starting pitcher Brad Keller was signed by the Boston Red Sox on Sunday, May 26. Zack Kelly was optioned to Triple-A Worcester in the corresponding move. Keller opened the season with the Chicago White Sox primarily in a long relief role but did make two starts. Through his two starts, he posted a hefty 8.32 ERA and 1.73 WHIP. As a reliever, he looked much better as he tossed eight innings to the tune of a 1.13 ERA and 1.00 WHIP. The 28-year-old should be expected to be in a similar role in Boston, as the Red Sox rotation currently has five designated starters. Keller could be worth adding if he makes spot starts during the summer in AL-only formats in the right matchup but should usually be left on all waiver wires as his projected role will not provide him much fantasy value.
