Mitch Keller is done for the season. The Pirates have placed him on the 60-day Injured List with a strained muscle in his throwing shoulder. Keller had struggled to a 5.29 ERA over 22 starts this season. He was rocked for seven earned runs on six hits and four walks in his start this past Sunday.

The Pittsburgh Pirates were very active re-shaping their bullpen at the Major League Baseball trade deadline Monday – and they defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 4-3 to open a four-game series.

Pirates general manager Ben Cherington made three trades prior to last night’s deadline. The biggest was acquiring New York Mets reliever Luke Weaver in exchange for their #9-ranked prospect in shortstop Sammy Stafura. Weaver has posted a 1.84 ERA over 44 appearances this season, primarily as the Mets “set-up” reliever. He signed a two-year deal worth $22 million last off-season, and the Mets are sending money to the Pirates as part of the trade. The 21-year old Stafura was acquired in the Ke’Bryan Hayes trade last year with Cincinnati. He led all of minor league baseball last month with 14 home runs and 75 total bases, but had been hitting.233 prior to the breakout.
