Doubles, scores in win Kelly went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Rays.

Impact Kelly extended his hitting streak to four games with the multi-hit effort, and he's now batting .281 for the season with a .705 OPS. The veteran catcher has appeared in 10 games so far, with Miguel Amaya appearing in seven. Kelly has the slight edge for playing time at the moment, though the Cubs can get both bats in the lineup by having one or the other serve as the DH and relying on Moises Ballesteros to serve as the backup behind the plate.

Touching Base: Cubs Have a Revamped Look and Even Bigger Expectations

Hits first spring home run Kelly went 2-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's Cactus League game against the Padres.

Impact Kelly connected in the fifth inning for his first home run of the exhibition slate. The veteran catcher got off to a scorching hot start in 2025 before eventually cooling off, but he still finished with a respectable .761 OPS and 17 home runs across 111 regular-season games. Heading into 2026, Kelly should be Chicago's top backstop again with Miguel Amaya serving in a complementary role. Amaya dealt with a myriad of injuries last year and could push for a larger role this season if he stays healthy, which would allow Kelly to stay fresher but might reduce his fantasy ceiling.
