Kelly (knee) gave up a run on one hit while pitching the eighth inning of Tuesday's 9-7 loss to the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly was back on the mound after he was removed from his previous relief appearance three days earlier against the Diamondbacks due to a bruised right knee. He retired three of the four batters he faced, though the lone hit he allowed was a solo home run by Michael Taylor. Kelly now owns a 7.07 ERA and 1.68 WHIP over 28 innings on the season.

Kelly left Saturday's appearance with a bruised left knee, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly was forced to exit after getting hit by a comebacker off the bat of Jake McCarthy with no outs in the top of the ninth. He left with the bases loaded and was ultimately charged with three earned runs. The X-rays came back negative on the right-hander's knee and he's considered day-to-day moving forward.

Kelly (illness) is available out of the bullpen Monday against the Astros, Scot Gregor of the Chicago Daily Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly was removed from Thursday's game against the Royals due to lightheadedness and didn't pitch during the weekend series against the Tigers. He's posted a 2.25 ERA and 0.88 WHIP in eight innings over nine appearances since the All-Star break.

Kelly exited Thursday's game against the Royals due to lightheadedness.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly will be further evaluated to determine the extent of the issue, but he should be considered day-to-day for now. If he's forced to miss additional time, Jake Diekman and Reynaldo Lopez should be candidates to see increased setup work.

Kelly was removed from Thursday's game against the Royals in the bottom of the seventh inning due to an apparent injury, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly dealt with a biceps issue in late July, but it's not yet clear whether his removal from Thursday's matchup was related to that issue. Prior to leaving Thursday's game with a trainer, he allowed a hit and a walk while failing to record a strikeout in one-third of a scoreless inning.

Kelly (biceps) picked up a hold and struck out one over a scoreless inning in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly had been removed from his previous appearance last Wednesday against the Rockies after experiencing right biceps discomfort, but he only needed a couple days of rest to avoid a trip to the injured list. The hold was his 11th of the season, tying Jose Ruiz for second on the team behind Kendall Graveman.

Kelly was removed from Wednesday's game against the Rockies with right biceps discomfort, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly entered for the eighth inning and allowed a double, hit a batter and had two strikeouts before exiting with the injury. According to Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times, the right-hander said the injury is related to the nerve issue in the same biceps which delayed his start to the season, though he doesn't expect to miss any time after the injury cropped up again Wednesday.

Kelly allowed two earned runs on two hits while striking out one to earn the save against the Blue Jays on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly surprisingly entered the game in the ninth inning, following Kendall Graveman -- the presumed closer in the absence of Liam Hendriks (forearm). Though Kelly managed to tally his first save of the season and sixth of his career, he made things interesting by allowing a single and a home run with one out. It is worth noting that Graveman was used to face the middle of Toronto's dangerous order, so it would be premature to now say Kelly is definitely the fill-in closer.

Kelly (hamstring) was activated from the 15-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

He probably wouldn't be the first option, but with Liam Hendriks (forearm strain) out indefinitely, there could be saves available in the Chicago bullpen. Kendall Graveman seems like the most likely option to get the first chance to fill in for Hendriks. Kelly had a rough start to the season but logged four scoreless appearances prior to landing on the shelf.

Kelly (hamstring) is expected to be reinstated from the 15-day injured list Tuesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kelly tossed over 20 pitches during a simulated game Sunday, and he'll be able to rejoin the White Sox's bullpen without making any rehab appearances. Over his seven major-league outings prior to his absence, he posted a 9.53 ERA and 2.47 WHIP in 5.2 innings.
