Brad Keller Done for Season After Brief Return from IL
The Phillies reliever made one appearance after returning from a month on the IL before suffering a season-ending setback.
Phillies reliever Brad Keller has been placed back on the injured list with what is being described as a season-ending injury. The 30-year-old righty had already missed nearly a month this season before returning briefly for a single appearance. Keller signed a two-year, $22MM deal after a strong 2025 campaign with the Cubs. His loss is expected to push bullpen reinforcements to the top of Philadelphia's trade deadline priority list.
