Blasts sixth home run Saturday
Kelly went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 5-3 win against the Reds on Saturday.
Análisis
Kelly hit his second home run in his last four games in the sixth inning, giving him six long balls on the season. The veteran catcher was making his fourth straight start, with Saturday's appearance coming at DH as Miguel Amaya handled duties behind the plate. Kelly and Amaya have been alternating pretty regularly as Chicago's backstop, limiting the fantasy ceiling of each as long as they're splitting the workload.

Returns to lineup with home run
Kelly went 1-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 9-7 win over the Orioles.
Análisis
Kelly hit the pine Tuesday in favor of Miguel Amaya, but he returned Wednesday and popped his fifth home run of the season. The two Chicago catchers have alternated starts the last eight games, which keeps both players fresher but also caps their upside. Based on this recent trend, it seems likely that Kelly will return to the bench for Thursday's matinee.

Taking seat Tuesday
Kelly is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Baltimore.
Análisis
Kelly and Miguel Amaya continue to split the reps at catcher for the Cubs fairly evenly. With Amaya in the lineup Tuesday, this marks the seventh consecutive occasion in which the two have alternated starts behind the dish.
