Carson Kelly | Fantasy Outlook

Carson Kelly provides elite offensive production from the catcher position during recent hot streak

Kelly is locked in at the plate, slashing .333 with a home run over his last week of action, including a clutch blast on July 8th. He serves as the primary everyday catcher for the second-place Cubs, who currently boast a 52-40 record and are riding a three-game win streak. Despite a litany of team injuries to the pitching staff and bench depth, Kelly remains a stable veteran presence in the middle of the Chicago lineup.

His current .283 batting average and .374 on-base percentage through 66 games significantly outpace our initial season projection of a .235 average. While some regression toward his career norms is expected over the long haul, his improved plate discipline suggests he has established a higher floor than in previous seasons. Fantasy managers should continue to start him with confidence as he is on pace to exceed our projected home run and RBI totals.

The Cubs finish their series in Baltimore today against Trevor Rogers and his 4.83 ERA before heading to Cincinnati for a three-game weekend set. Kelly will face a struggling Hunter Greene and a pair of mid-rotation arms in Nick Lodolo and Andrew Abbott, all of whom possess WHIPs at or above 1.40. Given the hitter-friendly conditions in Cincinnati and his current form, he is an elite catching option. Start.
