Melts down in third inning Keller (2-3) was tagged with the loss Sunday against the Twins after giving up seven runs (two earned) on six hits and a walk while fanning three across 4.1 innings.
Impact Keller began his outing hitting Luis Arraez and while he looked composed through the first two innings, the wheels came off in the third -- he gave up seven runs and was never able to recover. The right-hander has struggled due to a lack of consistency thus far and has given up at least four runs in four of his last six appearances. That translates to an 8.06 ERA across 22.1 innings. Keller will try to bounce back in his next start, scheduled for next week at home against the White Sox.

Responds with solid outing Keller (2-2) secured the win after allowing two runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out four across six innings Monday against the Tigers.
Impact Keller dealt with some traffic on the basepaths, but after giving up one run in the third inning and one in the fourth, he would exit with a 3-2 lead. The 25-year-old has struggled to find consistency through his first five starts, surrendering four or more runs in three of those outings. Keller will have a chance to string two strong starts together Sunday in Minnesota.

Can't escape second inning Keller (1-2) was charged with the loss against Tampa Bay on Tuesday, pitching 1.2 innings and allowing five runs on three hits and three walks while striking out one.
Impact Keller made it through the first inning with one run charged to his tally, but he fell apart in the second. The Rays notched only one hit in the frame but worked three walks off the right-hander to chase him from the game. Keller was largely responsible for his own demise as he threw only 29 of 54 pitches for strikes and uncorked a wild pitch to boot. This was the 25-year-old's second major implosion of the campaign, leading to an ugly 12.00 overall ERA. He'll try to turn things around Monday when he takes on the Tigers in Detroit.
