Atlanta recalled Elder from Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.
Elder will draw the start for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee. The right-hander has struggled mightily in his eight outings with the big club this season, putting up a 6.35 ERA and 1.64 WHIP across 39.2 innings. With Max Fried (forearm) out and Reynaldo Lopez's (forearm) status iffy, Elder could be needed for an additional start this weekend versus the Marlins.
