Merrill Kelly (36, Arizona Diamondbacks), the ‘reverse export legend’ who was achieving the best results after entering the Major League, is leaving for a long period of time due to injury.

Sports Illustrated (SI) reported on the 3rd (Korean time) that the Arizona team sent Kelly to the 60-day injured list.

Previously, Kelly was placed on the injured list on the 15th due to right shoulder pain on the 24th of last month. Her injury became prolonged, sending her to the 60-day disabled list.

Accordingly, Kelly’s return is impossible until early July. Kelly complained of pain in her right shoulder late last month, and an examination showed she had a sprain of her teres major muscle.

This is very bad news for both Arizona and Kelly. The disappointment is especially great because Kelly was achieving his best performance since his major league debut.

Also, the shoulder is a part that is directly related to the player’s life. Most elbow injuries recover, but shoulder injuries often shorten a player’s life.

Before this injury, Kelly pitched 24 2/3 innings in 4 games this season, showing very good form with 2 wins, no losses, and an ERA of 2.19.

The goal now is to return in the second half of the year after full recovery. Arizona will want Kelly to start the opening series of the second half.
