Braves' Bryce Elder: Strong against Milwaukee
Bryce Elder (2-4) earned the win over the Brewers on Tuesday, allowing one run on five hits and a walk while striking out seven over 6.1 innings.Elder did much better in this outing than he did in a July 20 spot start versus the Cardinals, in which he allowed six runs over five innings. The right-hander has been inconsistent at the major-league level, allowing six or more runs in three of his nine starts this season. He has a 5.67 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 40:15 K:BB through 46 innings.

Braves' Bryce Elder: Confirmed for start Tuesday
Atlanta will recall Bryce Elder from Triple-A Gwinnett to start Tuesday against the Brewers.Elder already joined Atlanta's taxi squad in Milwaukee on Monday, so it comes as little surprise that he'll get the starting nod for the second game of the series. If Elder fares well Tuesday in his return to the big club and if Reynaldo Lopez (forearm) is forced to miss his next turn through the rotation, Atlanta could have both Grant Holmes and Elder make starts against the Marlins over the weekend. The outlooks for both Elder and Holmes beyond this week are murkier, however, especially if both Lopez and Max Fried (forearm) are able to move past their current injuries. Elder has previously made eight starts for Atlanta this season, going 1-4 with a 6.35 ERA and 1.64 WHIP across 39.2 innings.
