Merrill Kelly shines in victory over Cubs with solid outing

by Matthew Adam | Diamondbacks Correspondent | Sat, Mar 29th 6:40am EDT

Merrill Kelly allowed one earned run on three hits and four walks while striking out one over 5.1 innings in Friday's win against the Cubs.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite the modest strikeout total, Kelly's impressive 1.69 ERA and low BABIP indicate he has been effective early in the season. However, his 1.31 WHIP and 0.25 strikeout-to-walk ratio raise some concerns about his long-term viability in fantasy leagues. Owners should monitor his performance closely, as he may need to improve his command to maintain success.
