Timeline

1988

Joseph William Kelly Jr. (born June 9, 1988) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball (MLB).

He has previously played in MLB for the St. Louis Cardinals, Boston Red Sox, and Chicago White Sox.

He played college baseball for the UC Riverside Highlanders.

He has served as both a starter and a reliever.

2007

He was named Big West Conference Pitcher of the Year in 2007 as a freshman.

2008

After his sophomore season in 2008, he played collegiate summer baseball for the Yarmouth–Dennis Red Sox of the Cape Cod Baseball League.

2009

The Cardinals drafted Kelly in the third round of the 2009 MLB draft.

Listed at 6 ft and 190 lb, Kelly throws and bats right-handed.

In 2009, Kelly posted a 5.65 earned run average (ERA) with a 1–1 win–loss record.

Kelly set a Highlanders record with 24 career saves and was named an All-American.

His final career stats at UCR included a 4.65 ERA and an 8–11 record in 42 career games.

The St. Louis Cardinals selected Kelly in the third round of the 2009 MLB draft and signed him on June 15 for $341,000.

Kelly made his professional baseball debut with the Batavia Muckdogs of the Class A Short Season New York–Penn League, where he appeared in 16 games (two starts), posting a 4.75 ERA with 30 strikeouts in 30 1⁄3 innings pitched.

2010

In 2010, the Cardinals mainly used Kelly as a starting pitcher with the Class A Quad Cities River Bandits to get him more innings and develop his secondary pitches.

He succeeded in the role and remained a starter.

For the season, Kelly appeared in 26 games (18 starts) and pitched 103 1⁄3 innings while registering 92 strikeouts and 45 walks with a 4.62 ERA and 6–8 record.

2011

In 2011, Kelly pitched for the Class A-Advanced Palm Beach Cardinals of the Florida State League and then the Double-A Springfield Cardinals of the Texas League.

Combined, Kelly appeared in 23 games (22 starts) and pitched 132 innings, recording 113 strikeouts and 59 walks with an 11–6 record and 3.68 ERA.

2012

In 2012, with the Triple-A Memphis Redbirds, he posted a 2.86 ERA in 12 games (all starts).

Kelly made his MLB debut on June 10, replacing the injured Jaime García in the Cardinals' starting rotation.

Kelly pitched seven innings in his MLB debut, against the Cleveland Indians, allowing seven hits and one run while striking out four batters; he received a no decision in the game.

His first MLB strikeout was of Carlos Santana.

Once García returned to the rotation, Kelly moved to a bullpen role; however, he impressed team officials so much they considered keeping him in the rotation and moving Lance Lynn to the bullpen.

Overall for the 2012 Cardinals, Kelly appeared in 24 games (16 starts) while compiling a 5–7 record, with a 3.53 ERA and 75 strikeouts in 107 innings pitched.

Kelly's first MLB postseason series was the 2012 National League Division Series, against the Washington Nationals.

He appeared in three games and pitched 3 2⁄3 innings of relief without giving up a run or a hit; he walked one batter and struck out three batters.

The Cardinals then advanced to the 2012 NLCS against the San Francisco Giants.

In the deciding Game 7, Kelly came on to pitch in the third inning with the Giants ahead 2–0 with the bases loaded and no outs; he gave up two hits and two walks, lasting just 2⁄3 of an inning, and exited with the Giants ahead 7–0, in a game they would go on to win 9–0.

Overall, Kelly made four appearances in the series, pitching a total of four innings in relief; he gave up six hits and was charged with two earned runs, while walking three batters and striking out two batters.

2013

Kelly has gained publicity for his comical repertoire, such as dancing in the outfield during practice, disguising himself while interviewing the unwitting rapper Nelly, engaging in a lengthy staredown with Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Scott Van Slyke before a 2013 National League Championship Series game, and wearing a charro jacket to the White House.

After spring training in 2013, Kelly lost his rotation spot to rookie Shelby Miller and was relegated to the bullpen for much of the first half of the season, seeing little use.

However, he became known somewhat as a "stopper" after being reinserted into the rotation to increase its effectiveness.

In August, Kelly went 5–0 with a 2.08 ERA.

He stranded 83.3% of baserunners as a reliever, and 82% as a starter.

He won all three of his starts against the Pittsburgh Pirates, who finished the season three games behind the Cardinals.

During the 2013 Cardinals regular season, Kelly had 37 appearances (15 starts), registering a 10–5 record and 2.69 ERA, with 79 strikeouts in 124 innings pitched.

2020

In 2020, Kelly's mocking of Carlos Correa complaining about a near hit by pitch became a popular online meme.

Kelly is the son of former NFL player, Joseph Kelly Sr., who spent his college career at Vanderbilt University and played professionally for the then San Diego Chargers. Kelly was born in Anaheim, California, and attended Corona High School in Corona, California.

After high school, he attended the University of California, Riverside (UCR), and played college baseball for the Highlanders team.

An outfielder in high school, he converted to pitcher in college and served as the closer.
