Sharp in first win of season Kelly (1-0) picked up the win in Wednesday's 11-2 rout of the Nationals, allowing one run on six hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out five.
Impact The right-hander saw his scoreless streak to begin the season end at 15 innings, but Kelly still put together another excellent outing in his first quality start of the season, and this time he actually got some run support. He sports a 0.59 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 18:5 K:BB through 15.1 innings, and while some regression will be coming, even his current 1.70 FIP is outstanding.

Holds Houston scoreless Kelly struck out six in 5.1 scoreless innings, allowing three hits and two walks in a 3-2 win Wednesday over Houston. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Kelly has not allowed a run in either of his two starts, striking out 13 in 9.1 innings. Not known as a strikeout pitcher, the 33-year-old also struck out 13 batters in seven scoreless innings of work in the spring. Time will tell if Kelly's recent increase in velocity is here to stay and will continue to result in more strikeouts. His next start is likely early next week in Washington.

Scheduled to start Wednesday Kelly is listed as the probable starter for Wednesday's game against the Astros.
Impact Kelly initially lined up to start Friday's series opener against the Mets, but he'll be moved up to start at home Wednesday since Zac Gallen (undisclosed) is no longer scheduled to pitch Tuesday. Kelly had an uptick in his fastball velocity in his season debut against the Padres on Friday, and he allowed four hits and two walks while striking out seven in four innings.
APRIL 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Experiences uptick in velo Kelly experienced an increase in fastball velocity during his start last Friday, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Kelly's performance in a 3-0 loss to the Padres was overshadowed by the Diamondbacks' lack off success at the dish, but the right-hander averaged 93.1 mph on the 39 four-seamers he threw, clocking higher than the 91.7 mph he averaged last season. In 10 career MLB starts in which he's averaged 92.5 mph or higher, Kelly's ERA is 2.25, nearly two runs fewer than his career mark of 4.23. Those outings also featured an increase in strikeouts -- 9.5 K/9 compared to a career mark of 7.7. The 33-year-old also noted the action of his changeup, which was diving down and in to right-handed hitters and away from lefties. He induced six swinging strikes with it. Kelly hopes to see similar results Friday when he kicks off a road series against the Mets.

Diamondbacks' Merrill Kelly hoping added velocity is here to stay Right-hander Merrill Kelly was throwing harder on Friday night, an encouraging sign for the Diamondbacks.
APRIL 10, 2022 • AZCENTRAL.COM
Four scoreless innings Kelly took the no-decision in Friday's 3-0 loss to San Diego, allowing no runs on four hits and two walks with seven strikeouts across four innings.
Impact Kelly quieted a potent San Diego offense and was able to keep Arizona competitive until the bullpen caved. Manager Torey Lovullo only let Kelly get through the lineup twice, as the Padres made him grind through a couple of innings -- a 28-pitch first inning and 25-pitch fourth inning -- that inflated his pitch count to 75. The 33-year-old lines up to face the Mets for his next start on Friday.

APRIL 8, 2022 • Associated Press
Strong in final spring start Kelly allowed one run (none earned) on one hit and struck out five over four innings in Saturday's spring training start against the White Sox.
Impact Kelly, the recipient of a contract extension earlier this week, fulfilled the organization's faith with a strong final Cactus League outing. He threw 62 pitches and was slated for a pitch count in the 70s, but the right-hander was removed because Arizona's offense had a long bottom of the fourth inning, according to Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic.

APRIL 1, 2022 • MLB.COM
Sticking around through 2024 Kelly signed a two-year, $18 million extension with a team option for a third season Friday.
Impact Kelly hasn't been anything special since making his major-league debut at age 30 back in 2019, but he's been a perfectly adequate rotation option, posting a 4.27 ERA. His low 20.2 percent strikeout rate caps his fantasy upside, but his 6.6 percent walk rate has largely been able to offset that, allowing him to prevent runs at a roughly average rate. He's now 33 years old and will be 35 by the time his extension ends, but the Diamondbacks evidently feel that he'll still have something to offer at that age.
