The Phillies added Brad Keller to their pitching staff on Wednesday, agreeing to a $22 million, two-year contract with the right-hander, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press. Keller is coming off a terrific season with the Chicago Cubs, going 4-2 with a career-low 2.07 ERA in 68 appearances. He struck out 75 in 69 2/3 innings. The 30-year-old worked out of the bullpen last year also has 117 career starts. Ranger Suárez, a key member of Philadelphia’s rotation this season, is a free agent. Keller’s guarantee matches the $22 million, two-year deal Luke Weaver struck Wednesday with the New York Mets. The Phillies won the NL East this year for the second straight season. They were eliminated by the Los Angeles Dodgers in a four-game Division Series. The Phillies answered one major offseason question when they re-signed Kyle Schwarber to a $150 million, five-year contract. Adolis García is expected to play right field for the team after finalizing a $10 million, one-year contract on Tuesday. Longtime Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto remains a free agent, along with Suárez and outfielder Harrison Bader. Keller was an eighth-round pick by Arizona in the 2013 amateur draft. He made his major league debut with Kansas City in 2018, going 9-6 with a 3.08 ERA in 20 starts and 21 relief appearances. Keller is 42-59 with a 4.14 ERA and five saves in 234 career games, also playing for the Boston Red Sox and Chicago White Sox. ...read more read less
