Bryce Elder - Next start getting skipped Atlanta will skip Elder's next turn through the rotation, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Elder was lined up to make his next start Friday against the Mets, but Atlanta will give him extra time to rest after he displayed diminished velocity during his last outing Saturday. Grant Holmes will now take the mound to begin Friday's contest; meanwhile, Elder's next start is likely to come next week in Pittsburgh.

Reynaldo López - Earns win vs. Cardinals Lopez (4-1) earned the win Wednesday over St. Louis, allowing a run on two hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out six.

Impact Making a second straight start, Lopez would give up a run in the first inning before settling in and holding the Cardinals without a hit over his final four frames. After a rough start to the year, Lopez has turned things around of late, posting a 2.70 ERA over his last 11 appearances (23.1 innings). Lopez looks to have earned another chance in Atlanta's rotation going forward -- he's currently slated to face the Mets at home in his next outing.

Grant Holmes - Might remain in bullpen Holmes could remain in Atlanta's bullpen moving forward, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Holmes made 15 starts for Atlanta before tossing four scoreless relief innings in his last appearance against the Giants. While Holmes could make another start Thursday versus the Cardinals if Hurston Waldrep is needed in relief Wednesday, the club's preference is to keep Holmes in the bullpen. Holmes has collected a 3.96 ERA and 69:37 K:BB over 77.1 frames this season.

Hurston Waldrep - Could enter rotation Thursday Waldrep could start Thursday's game against the Cardinals if he isn't needed out of the bullpen Wednesday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Reynaldo Lopez is starting Wednesday's game, and if he's able to go at least 4-to-5 innings, it's likely Waldrep will start Thursday's series finale. If Waldrep has to pitch in relief Wednesday, Grant Holmes could draw Thursday's start. Waldrep had surgery to remove loose bodies from his right elbow back in February before throwing 55 pitches over two scoreless relief innings in his season debut for Atlanta last week. His high pitch count in five rehab starts was 71, so the righty is not fully stretched out yet.

Reynaldo López - Making another start Wednesday Lopez will start Wednesday's game against the Cardinals in Atlanta.

Impact Lopez will be making his second straight appearance as a starter, though Mark Bowman of MLB.com previously reported that Atlanta could once again have Hurston Waldrep piggyback the veteran right-hander. In his last appearance Friday in San Francisco, Lopez threw three innings of one-run ball before Waldrep followed with two scoreless frames in relief. Lopez tossed 57 pitches in that outing, but even if he gets piggybacked agin, he could still push up his pitch count a bit more Wednesday.
