Brad Keller, Ryan O'Hearn Test Positive For COVID-19
4 years agoThe Kansas City Royals announced on Tuesday that starting pitcher Brad Keller and first baseman Ryan O'Hearn tested positive for COVID-19. Keller said he has experienced mild symptoms, while O'Hearn is asymptomatic. Both players will need to return two negative tests within 24 hours in order to join the team's summer camp. Keller will now be a question mark near the top of KC's starting rotation to begin the season. The 24-year-old right-hander already wasn't very attractive due to a low strikeout rate in standard-sized fantasy leagues. O'Hearn was set to compete for the job at first base with Ryan McBroom, but he might not be ready for the start of the season. After posting a .195/.281/.369 slash line in 370 plate appearances in 2019, the 26-year-old is off the mixed league radar.
