Mitch Keller left Saturday's game in the third inning after bouncing a breaking ball well short of the plate and immediately calling for the trainer. The injury was diagnosed as left side discomfort, which likely means he has an oblique injury. (Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette)

Fantasy Impact:

Keller's velocity was touching 95+ MPH, but he was getting hit hard consistently by the Cubs. Oblique injuries are tricky, so Keller could potentially miss a few starts. Check back after the game for further information.
