Nick Pratto - Impressing at Double-APratto has a .320/.466/.710 slash line across 131 plate appearances with Double-A Northwest Arkansas.
ImpactThe first-round pick from 2017 struggled at High-A Wilmington in 2019 with a .191/.278/.310 slash line, nine homers, 46 RBI, 48 runs scored and 17 stolen bases in 124 games. Pratto has turned it around in 2021 with 10 homers, 23 RBI, 23 runs scored and five steals in just 29 Double-A games. The strong hitting could eventually lead to a promotion to Triple-A Omaha, although that should not be considered imminent.

Brad Keller - Unimpressive in lossKeller (6-5) took the loss versus the Angels on Wednesday. He allowed five runs on eight hits and four walks while striking out four in 5.1 innings.
ImpactKeller kept the ball in the yard Wednesday, but the 12 baserunners he allowed represented a season high. The right-hander has been inconsistent throughout the year with a 5.75 ERA, 1.75 WHIP and 59:33 K:BB across 61 innings. While he's upped his K/9 to 8.1, his BB/9 of 4.3 and HR/9 of 1.2 are also elevated compared to a 2.8 BB/9 and 0.3 HR/9 from last year. He also carries a .363 BABIP and 4.61 FIP, so some of Keller's struggles can be pinned on bad luck. He'll line up for a start versus Detroit next week.
