MILWAUKEE -- Mitch Keller sure made it sound, at least initially, as if he'd convened some meeting of masterminds.
The most pivotal player the Pittsburgh Baseball Club will employ at any level of the organization in 2022 -- and I'm using the term pivotal in its precise sense, meaning he could pivot violently one way or the other -- had been a little peeved and a lot puzzled by how he'd pitched pretty well through two starts, only to see the same sagging results as the past. You know, four runs in each, not getting past the fourth inning .
