Keone Kela Switches To Wasserman Media Group

Rangers right-hander Keone Kela has changed agents, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports (via Twitter). He is now represented by the Wasserman Media Group, per the report.

Kela, 22, emerged as a force in the Texas bullpen in his rookie campaign. Over 60 1/3 frames, he owns a 2.39 ERA with 10.1 K/9 against 2.7 BB/9 to go with a 50.1% groundball rate. Those peripherals supported the excellent results: all the major ERA estimators (FIP, xFIP, and SIERA) viewed Kela as a sub-3.00 performer.

Of course, despite his success, Kela will enter the winter with only one year of service on his clock.
