Losing ways continue
Kelly (5-8) took the loss Sunday against the Rays, allowing five runs on eight hits and two walks in six innings. He struck out three.
Analyse
Kelly struggled to find a rhythm Sunday, tossing just two scoreless innings on the afternoon. The month of June wasn't particularly kind to the 37-year-old right-hander, who has now coughed up 23 runs to go along with a concerning 14:11 K:BB across his last 28.1 frames. Kelly has also taken a loss in each of his past five starts, so he'll be hoping to turn the page when he brings a 5.84 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 47:33 K:BB over 81.2 innings into his next scheduled appearance against the Brewers.

Suffers seventh loss
Kelly (5-7) took the loss Monday, allowing three runs on seven hits and three walks over six innings against St. Louis. He struck out two.
Analyse
Kelly ran into some trouble in the third and fourth innings but was able to mitigate the damage fairly well and record a quality start, though a lack of offense from Arizona saddled the 37-year-old with the loss. The right-hander has had spurts of success but has mostly struggled in 2026, posting a 5.71 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 44:31 K:BB across 75.2 innings (13 starts). Having lost each of his four most recent starts, Kelly will look to reverse that trend in his next outing, tentatively scheduled for Saturday at Tampa Bay.
