Kepler (knee) agreed to a one-year, $10 million contract with Philadelphia, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports. The deal is pending a physical.
Scouting Report
A good athlete, he features good power and run-producing qualities. Versatile in the outfield, he can also fill in at first base if need be. His plate coverage is excellent. Could stand to improve his throwing arm, which is mediocre at best. Also needs to become a more consistent hitter for average. Does not run enough, either.
Long Range Potential: Left-handed power hitter with a little upside.
