Kelly is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
Kelly will hit the bench for the third time in four games while the Tigers go with Jake Rogers behind the dish. Though Kelly has outproduced Rogers this season, the latter is sporting the hotter bat at the moment, as Rogers will head into Thursday's game having produced an extra-base knock in each of his last three starts.

Kelly went 1-for-3 with two walks, a solo home run and an additional run scored Thursday against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
Kelly, starting for just the second time in five days as he continues to work in a timeshare with Jake Rogers, extended his modest hitting streak to six while reaching base three times and homering for the third time during that six-game stretch. It was the seventh home run of the season for Kelly, who has also added 28 RBI while producing a useful slash line of .247/.326/.418 through 178 plate appearances.

Kelly is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
Though Kelly has an active five-game hitting streak, the playing time behind the plate has tilted in favor of Jake Rogers lately. Rogers will make his third start in four games while Kelly sits.

Kelly is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
The playing time at catcher had been swinging in Kelly's favor lately, but he'll end up hitting the bench for a second straight day Monday. Tigers manager A.J. Hinch may have just wanted to reward Jake Rogers with another turn behind the dish after Rogers reached base twice, recorded his first steal of the season and scored twice in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Reds.

Kelly is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
With eight hits -- including three home runs -- in 28 at-bats over his last eight starts, Kelly seems to have at least temporarily overtaken Jake Rogers as the Tigers' preferred catcher. Though Rogers gets the nod behind the dish Sunday, Kelly had started in three of the previous four contests.

Kelly went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Wednesday's 9-2 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Kelly was one of four Detroit players to go deep, and his third inning shot was the biggest blow of the game. It was the catcher's sixth home run of the season and he's now up to 25 RBI. Kelly continues to split time behind the plate with Jake Rogers, though the former has been more effective offensively, which could lead to an increased role in the months ahead.

Kelly went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Kelly provided an offensive jolt with his fifth home run of the year from the fifth spot in the lineup, one spot behind fellow catcher Jake Rogers, who served as the DH. The two players continue to split time behind the plate, which limits the fantasy upside of both of them. Kelly has been the more effective offensive player overall, however, as he has a .711 OPS compared to a .609 mark for Rogers.
