Lovelady will start Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.
Lovelady will make his sixth start of the season while the Nationals lean on their bullpen to get through Wednesday's series finale. The 31-year-old southpaw has given up three runs (one earned) in 2.1 innings since returning from the injured list and will likely remain in the game for only an inning or two.
