The Philadelphia Phillies face an increased urgency at the trade deadline after a setback in their bullpen.
Reliever Brad Keller has a torn UCL in his right elbow and is expected to miss the remainder of the season, according to reports. If surgery is required, it could sideline him for a significant portion of 2027 as well.
Keller appeared in 32 games this season, going 2-1 with a 4.02 ERA and recording three saves. The 30-year-old right-hander is in his ninth major league season and his first with the Phillies. He signed a two-year, $22 million contract as a free agent last winter.
More updates will follow as the situation develops.
