Carson Kelly went 1-for-1 with three walks on Friday as the Cubs suffered a 2-0 setback to the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact
Kelly reached base in all four of his plate appearances on Friday, upping his season on-base percentage to .425 in 11 contests. The veteran catcher also raised his batting average to .303 (10-for-33) with four runs scored, two doubles, and three runs batted in. The Cubs are currently carrying three catchers with Miguel Amaya serving as the backup and Moises Ballesteros working as a designated hitter. Amaya is also off to a good start at the plate, so the two should continue to split time with Kelly typically playing two out of every three games.
