Joe Kelly Could Retire
Free-agent right-handed reliever Joe Kelly (shoulder), who suffered a shoulder injury last September while with the Los Angeles Dodgers that forced him to miss the team's World Series run, acknowledged that he might retire. The 36-year-old remains open to pitching this year and continues to progress through a throwing program, but he's uncertain if he'll pitch in 2025. "I'm not 100 percent yet," Kelly said. "I want to see if I get to 100 percent." Kelly was 1-1 with a 4.78 ERA in 35 appearances out of the bullpen for the Blue last year and has gone 54-38 with a 3.98 ERA and seven saves in 485 career games (81 starts). He's pretty much done at all at this point, winning three World Series rings -- in 2020 and 2024 with the Dodgers and in 2018 with the Boston Red Sox. If Kelly does pitch in 2025, it won't be at the start of the season, and it would most likely be with the Dodgers.
