Diamondbacks and Pirates Trade Deadline
The Diamondbacks are on the bubble of being buyers and sellers at the trade deadline. They have been rumored to trade Ketel Marte, but they could also add a bat to make a splash for their offense. The Pirates are unlikely to be heavily involved in the trade market and may not have the means to be major buyers.
Mitch Keller will start for the Pirates. He has a record of 6-7 with a 4.90 ERA and a 1.31 WHIP. Keller has been very bad in Pittsburgh this season, with a 5.68 ERA at home. The Diamondbacks are taking the Pirates in this game, with sharp action coming in on Arizona.
