Whiffs 12 in losing effort
Kelly (2-5) lost Thursday's 3-2 match game against Los Angeles, pitching seven innings and permitting three runs on six hits with 12 strikeouts.
Impact
Not known for his strikeout abilities, Kelly had his stuff working Thursday and was able to retire 12 Dodgers via the K despite averaging less than six per start this season. Alas, his two mistakes did him in: an Albert Pujols second-inning two-run homer and a Will Smith solo shot in the seventh. Kelly will look to build on the successful outing as he lines up to face San Francisco next week.

Struggles with command in loss
Kelly (2-3) allowed three runs (two earned) on three hits and five walks while striking out six across 5.2 innings, taking the loss to the Mets on Saturday.
Impact
All of the damage against Kelly came in the third inning Saturday, when he started by walking the pitcher, Joey Lucchesi, and then surrendered a two-run home run to Jeff McNeil. Kelly got through the rest of his start unharmed, however he never had a feel for his command, walking a season-high five batters. The 32-year-old has had issues with giving out free bases this season with a 3.29 BB/9. He had just a 1.4 BB/9 last year in the shortened season.

Returns from injured list
Kelly (undisclosed) was activated off the injured list Friday.
Impact
The Diamondbacks didn't give a reason for Kelly's placement on the injured list Tuesday, but the fact that he's back just three days later indicates that it was the COVID-19 injured list and also indicates that he wasn't dealing with the virus himself. He's expected to start a game this weekend against the Mets, though which one he'll start remains to be seen. Wyatt Mathisen was optioned in a corresponding move.

Impact

Lands on injured list
Kelly was placed on the injured list Tuesday for unspecified reasons.
Impact
The Diamondbacks didn't provide an injury designation or specify which injured list he was placed on, so the right-hander's return timeline remains unclear. Kelly could be activated at any point if he landed on the COVID-19 injured list, as long as he's cleared the league's protocols. The 22-year-old's availability for his next turn through the rotation Saturday against the Mets will remain up in the air until his status is updated.
