Keith went 2-for-5 with two home runs and three total RBI in Friday's 5-4 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Keith hit a solo blast in the third inning, then followed that up with a two-run shot in the fifth. The 22-year-old now has seven home runs this season, with four of them coming in the last 10 games. During that stretch, he's batting .286 with a .945 OPS. Keith seems to be delivering on his prospect potential after a slow start to the year, and he could be a difference maker in fantasy leagues the rest of the way if he keeps this up.

Keith went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 12-3 loss to the Twins, which was called after seven innings due to rain.
EDGE Analysis
Keith was a bright spot for the Tigers on an ugly afternoon in Minneapolis. The young second baseman now has consecutive multi-hit efforts, and he's tripled and gone deep during the stretch. Overall, Keith has been so-so this year with a .236 average and .620 OPS, though he's been better from May onward after a rough first month in the majors. There's still potential for a big finish from the 22-year-old rookie.

Keith is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Keith had made 10 consecutive starts at second base, but he'll get the day off Tuesday against Ranger Suarez and the Phillies. Instead, Andy Ibanez will bat second and slot in at the keystone. During the 10-game stretch, Keith went 14-for-39 (.359) with a pair of homers and a stolen base.

Keith went 4-for-5 with a double, a home run, three total runs scored and three RBI in Sunday's 11-2 win over the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Keith got the scoring started with a two-run home run, his fourth of the season, in the first inning and proceeded to record his third four-hit effort of the year. The youngster is riding a five-game hitting streak and is batting .258 this month. Keith is now batting .243 overall and is trending in the right direction after a slow start to his rookie campaign.

Keith went 4-for-6 with a solo home run and a double in Saturday's 13-5 win over the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Keith tacked on the final run of the game with a homer in the ninth inning. The infielder had struggled early in June, going 4-for-30 over his previous 10 games, though he's racked up seven hits across his last three contests. He's rarely been a source of power in 2024 -- Keith has just three homers, seven doubles and a .315 slugging percentage while batting .235 over 61 games.

Keith (knee) will start at second base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Keith will slot back in at the keystone after he was excluded from the starting nine in both of the past two games, though he appeared off the bench and went hitless in his lone at-bat in Tuesday's 5-4 extra-inning loss. The rookie got off to a rough start to the season but seems to have turned the corner since mid-May, as he's slashing .286/.324/.414 over a stretch of 22 games.

Keith (knee) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Keith collided with Akil Baddoo during Saturday's loss to the Brewers and will miss a second straight game with soreness in his left knee. Testing showed no structural damage to Keith's knee, so it's likely he won't require an IL stint. Still, the 22-year-old should be considered day-to-day. Andy Ibanez will bat second and play the keystone Tuesday.

Keith (knee) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Keith was removed in the third inning of Saturday's 5-4 loss after colliding with Akil Baddoo in right field. With the Tigers slated for an off day Monday, Keith will have some additional rest before the next series against the Nationals beginning Tuesday. The 22-year-old second baseman told reporters before Sunday's game that there is no structural damage to his left knee, and he doesn't expect to need a stint on the IL, per Jason Beck of MLB.com. With Keith sitting Sunday, Andy Ibanez will start at second base and bat eighth against Brewers right-hander Bryse Wilson.
