Pirates place Keone Kela (undisclosed) on IL
The Pittsburgh Pirates placed reliever Keona Kela (undisclosed) on the 10-day injured list.
What It Means:
Kela hasn't been present at summer camp and the Pirates haven't provided any explanation. Assuming that Kela won't be ready for Opening Day on July 24 versus the St. Louis Cardinals, the Pirates figure to turn to Kyle Crick for closing duties to start the season.
numberFire's models expect Kela to notch 9 saves over 21 2/3 innings this season while recoring a 3.35 ERA and 1.07 WHIP with 27 strikeouts and 8 walks.
