Falls to Colorado
Kelly (8-10) took the loss Wednesday against the Rockies, allowing six runs on six hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out two.
Analyse
Four of the runs charged to Kelly came in the fourth inning, capped by a Brett Sullivan three-run homer. He'd subsequently give up a two-run blast to Zac Veen in the fourth. While the long ball hurt Kelly earlier this season, he'd been doing a better job of keeping the ball in the park coming into Wednesday's outing -- he allowed just one homer over 16.1 innings in his previous three starts. Kelly's ERA now sits at 5.11 through 22 starts (125 innings) this season, alongside a 1.48 WHIP and 82:53 K:BB. He'll look to bounce back in his next start, currently slated to come on the road against the Red Sox.

Ready to start Wednesday
Kelly (leg) is listed as the Diamondbacks' probable starting pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Rockies in Arizona.
Analyse
Kelly was lifted midway through the sixth inning of his latest start Friday against the Dodgers due to right leg cramping, but the veteran right-hander looks ready to return to the hill on four days' rest after receiving treatment for the issue. Though Kelly's ERA (4.88) and WHIP (1.47) currently sit at career-worst levels, he's at least consistently provided the Diamondbacks with length in his starts, working at least five innings in 17 consecutive outings.

Exits with injury
Kelly was removed from Friday's game against the Dodgers due to a right leg cramp.
Analyse
Kelly made it through 5.2 innings Friday while allowing just one run before calling for a trainer to come out to the mound. The Diamondbacks may keep an eye on Kelly's leg over the next few days to be careful, but his cramp likely won't keep him from making his next scheduled start.
