The Pirates open a short series in Detroit tonight. Greg Brown has a preview. (It’s a 6:45 airtime, 7:10 first pitch on WCCS)
Mitch Keller is the National League Player of the Week after throwing 16 scoreless innings over his last two starts. He won both of those starts, a complete game shutout of Colorado followed by seven scoreless on Sunday against Baltimore. He gave up only eight hits and one walk combined and struck out 21, including a career-high 13 on Sunday.
Keller is 5-1 with a 2.38 ERA this season. Teammate Bryan Reynolds was named the NL Player of the Week on April 10th.
