June 10, 2025 4:26 PM : Kelly is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Philadelphia.
Analysis: Kelly batted seventh Monday -- which is the lowest he's hit since April -- and is out of the lineup altogether Tuesday as he battles through a 2-for-30 slump. Reese McGuire is catching and batting ninth for the Cubs.
