CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Cubs have agreed to
a minor league contract with right-hander Brad Keller that
includes an invitation to big league camp for spring training.
The Cubs announced the deal on Friday.
The 29-year-old Keller pitched for the Chicago White Sox and
Boston Red Sox in 2024, going 0-4 with a 5.44 ERA in 16 games,
including two starts.
Keller made his big league debut with Kansas City in 2018 and
spent his first six seasons with the Royals. He is 38-57 with a
4.34 ERA in 166 career games, including 116 starts.
Keller joins a list of non-roster invitees to Cubs camp that
also includes catcher Reese McGuire and right-hander Trevor
Richards.
Also Friday, the Cubs traded infielder Luis Vázquez to Baltimore
for cash. Vázquez was designated for assignment on Tuesday.
The 25-year-old Vázquez made his major league debut in May. He
went 1 for 12 and scored twice in 11 games with Chicago.
