Posts quality start in win Elder (7-6) earned the win against the Nationals on Friday, allowing one run on four hits and three walks with three strikeouts over six innings.

Impact Elder allowed a solo homer in the fourth inning but otherwise kept the Nationals' potent lineup at bay despite throwing just 52 of 93 pitches for strikes with only six whiffs. After posting a bloated 8.10 ERA in June, the 27-year-old rebounded with a 3.00 mark and two quality starts over four July outings. He'll carry a 3.84 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 101:40 K:BB across 119.2 innings this season into a home matchup with the Marlins next week.

Six strong innings in sixth win Elder (6-6) earned the win Monday against San Diego, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk in six-plus innings. He struck out four.

Impact Elder came out for the seventh inning Monday, but he served up a solo home run to Ty France and was promptly pulled from the outing. It was the right-hander's first quality start since June 7 versus Pittsburgh, but he hasn't given up fewer than multiple runs since May 22 against Washington. Elder is set to finish a two-start week over the weekend in Baltimore, where he'll carry a middling 4.06 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 90:33 K:BB over 108.2 innings.

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.

Could get extra rest before ASB Elder's velocity was down about one mph on all his pitches in his most recent start, and Atlanta is likely to look for opportunities to give him extra rest, Mark Bowman of MLB.com...

Impact The right-hander has looked fatigued over his last three starts, coughing up 19 runs in 14 innings on 27 hits, including five homers. Atlanta's rotation is already missing multiple members, however, and depth is an issue. Hurston Waldrep, who was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett this past weekend and threw 55 pitches over two innings of relief behind Reynaldo Lopez on Friday, could be an option to make a spot start and buy Elder an extra day of rest.

Tagged for five runs in loss Elder (5-6) allowed five runs on five hits and a walk while striking out four over four innings to take the loss Saturday versus the Giants.

Impact Elder gave up four of the runs via Rafael Devers long balls. This was Elder's third straight loss, and he has allowed 19 runs over 14 innings in that span, largely undoing what was a mostly positive first half of the campaign. The right-hander is now at a 4.01 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 83:30 K:BB through 98.2 innings over 17 starts. He's allowed five homers during his current losing streak compared to just seven homers across his first 14 starts, which explains at least some of the recent struggles.

It's the first time that Elder has given up more than one homer in a start this season -- he'd also allow season-highs in both runs and hits. Elder's ERA now sits at 3.15 through 15 starts (88.2 innings) this season with a 1.14 WHIP and 73:27 K:BB. He'll look to bounce back in his next outing, tentatively scheduled to come at home next weekend against the Brewers.
