Merrill Kelly has been on a serious roll as a pitcher this season. He’s 9th amongst National League pitchers in average wins above replacement between Baseball Reference and Fangraphs, at 3.05 according to Jack Sommers.
@baseball_ref Pitcher WAR starts w/Runs Against Per 9 then adjusts for parks, opponents quality, def quality @fangraphs WAR is FIP based, (BB/K/HR), does not include balls in play, also park adjusted
