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

EDGE Analysis

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.
