JOE KELLY NEWS

Completes rehab outing Kelly (undisclosed) walked two batters and notched one strikeout over one-third of an inning in a rehab appearance with Low-A Rancho Cucamonga on Friday.

Impact Pitching for the first time since going on the IL without an injury designation Aug. 10, Kelly hurled 16 pitches before departing with a pair of runners on base. Manager Dave Roberts previously indicated that the right-handed reliever could be activated as soon as Sunday, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic, though it's possible the Dodgers could elect for Kelly to make another rehab appearance given his rust Friday.

Moves to IL The Dodgers placed Kelly on the injured list Monday without a designation, implying he's been deactivated due to COVID-19-related reasons.

Impact Due to privacy reasons, the Dodgers can't disclose whether Kelly has tested positive for the coronavirus, or if he's merely considered a close contact of an infected person or persons. Regardless, Kelly's move to the IL clears a spot on the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster for fellow reliever Corey Knebel (lat), who was reinstated from the 60-day IL.

Shakes off hamstring injury Kelly (hamstring) appeared in relief in Friday's 6-5 loss and Saturday's 8-3 win against the Diamondbacks, tossing perfect innings in both outings.

Impact Before he was summoned out of the bullpen Friday, Kelly had been out of actin since July 30 while recovering from a minor hamstring injury. He's seemingly come out of both appearances without any setbacks, so he should be an integral part of the bridge to closer Kenley Jansen moving forward.

AUGUST 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Unavailable Tuesday Manager Dave Roberts said Kelly (hamstring) is unavailable for Tuesday's game at San Francisco, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact The veteran right-hander tweaked his hamstring during Sunday's win over the Rockies and will be sidelined for at least one game. It's not believed to be a serious issue as Kelly could be available for Wednesday's contest.

Tweaks hamstring Sunday Kelly tweaked his hamstring in the ninth inning of Sunday's win over the Rockies, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Kenley Jansen had pitched on three of the last four days, so Kelly entered Sunday's game in the ninth inning for the save opportunity. The right-hander allowed one hit and no walks while striking out one in a scoreless inning to earn the fourth save of his career and his first since 2019. However, manager Dave Roberts revealed after the game that Kelly suffered a hamstring injury while fielding a grounder, and he'll be evaluated Monday.
