4 June 2024
Issued one-year suspension
Kelly has been suspended one year for violating Major League Baseball's gambling policy, Jared Diamond of the Wall Street Journal reports.
Analysis
MLB's investigation determined that Kelly bet a total of $99.22 on MLB games during a time he was on the Astros' Triple-A Sugar Land roster. Currently, Kelly is on the Athletics' roster, having posted a 2.59 ERA over 28 relief appearances. He will not appeal the suspension.

Picks up third win Saturday
Kelly (3-2) picked up the win over Atlanta on Saturday, firing a scoreless inning during which he issued two walks and uncorked a wild pitch.
Analysis
Kelly's somewhat unorthodox line was befitting of the wild game it occurred in, but the veteran ultimately emerged with his third win of the season. Kelly came in to record the final out of the sixth with Jarred Kelenic on third and the Athletics clinging to a one-run lead, but he then handed Scott Alexander a two-on, two-out jam in next frame that the latter was able to wiggle out of and keep Kelly as the pitcher of record. Kelly has now turned in scoreless efforts in seven of his last eight appearances, bringing his ERA (2.59) down to its lowest point since April 20.
30 May 2024
Handed second loss Wednesday
Kelly (2-2) took the loss against the Rays on Wednesday, allowing an earned run on two hits over one-third of an inning.
Analysis
Kelly located six of his nine pitches for strikes while he was out there, but he allowed a leadoff double to Amed Rosario and an eventual walk-off RBI single to Jose Siri in what was a quick Rays game-winning rally. The right-hander saw an eight-appearance streak of not allowing an earned run snapped with the stumble, but Kelly retains an impressive 2.70 ERA and passable 1.17 WHIP across 30 innings (26 appearances) this season.
