Kelly went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in a victory over the Padres on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Kelly came around to score after singling in the second inning, and he produced the biggest blow of the game with a two-run shot to left field in the sixth. The homer was his sixth of the campaign -- second-most among catchers and one more than he hit in 39 games last season. Kelly's scorching start also includes a .340/.508/.766 slash line and 14 RBI.

Kelly went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 5-4 loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
The catcher remains one of the few consistent offensive forces in the Arizona lineup to begin the season. Kelly has five homers on the year, all of which have come in his last eight games, and the power surge has boosted his slash line to .341/.517/.756 through 58 plate appearances.

Kelly went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run and a walk in Thursday's 14-11, extra-innings win over Cincinnati.
EDGE Analysis
The catcher has been an offensive force thus far in 2021, hitting .351 in 37 at-bats with four homers and 10 RBI. He's also drawn 13 walks and struck out only 10 times. Kelly posted unremarkable numbers in 2020, but has been a tough out in the middle of Arizona's lineup this season and one of the top hitters at his position.

Kelly went 1-for-3 with two walks and a solo home run in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Kelly's fourth-inning blast was his third in the last four games and gives him five RBI during that stretch. The catcher has reached base safely in all but one of his 11 appearances and is slashing .400/.537/.767. This was Kelly's second start behind the plate with Madison Bumgarner on the hill, and it was by far the left-hander's best.

Kelly isn't starting Saturday's game against Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Kelly had started each of the last three games behind the plate and went 3-for-9 with two home runs, four RBI, three runs and three walks during that time. Stephen Vogt will start behind the dish Saturday, batting eighth.

Kelly went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored in the 11-6 win over the Nationals on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Not only has Kelly homered in back-to-back games, he has at least one hit in all but one of his nine games this season. The catcher is batting .440 with two home runs, five RBI and three runs scored. That is good production at a position that often lacks consistent offense. Kelly could see more time behind home plate if he continues to get on base.
