Merrill Kelly of Arizona Diamondbacks Expected to Start Despite Right Leg Cramping

Merrill Kelly has pitched in five games this season, holding a 3-1 record with a 4.72 ERA. He has thrown 26 2/3 innings with 21 strikeouts and 11 walks. His performance at home has been stronger, with an ERA of 3.09 and a record of 2-0.

The upcoming game against the Atlanta Braves at Chase Field could see Kelly making his start. Zac Gallen and Brandon Pfaadt are other starting pitchers on the Diamondbacks' depth chart. The team will hope Kelly's leg cramping does not impact his ability to maintain his home game performance level.
