Keuchel will start the Astros' third Grapefruit League game Saturday against the Yankees, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

Keuchel established himself as a premier pitcher in 2014, going 12-9 with a 2.93 ERA while leading the AL with five complete games. The 27-year-old left-hander also won the AL Gold Glove award after leading all pitchers with 66 total chances and 47 assists. His remarkable season makes him a candidate to start Opening Day for the Astros, but it's unclear at this point whether he or veteran Scott Feldman will earn the nod.
