Secures first victory Elder (1-1) earned the win over Colorado on Monday, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four batters over six innings.

Impact Elder got off to a rocky start when he fell behind on a three-run homer by Hunter Goodman in the first inning, but the righty hurler bounced back and didn't allow another run for the remainder of what ended up being a quality start. He wasn't overpowering in the outing, notching just seven whiffs and four punchouts, but Elder's performance was good enough to net him his first victory of 2025. His ERA still stands at a poor 5.33, but Elder has been better of late, giving up a combined four runs across 12 frames over his post two starts.

Sharp in no-decision Elder came away with a no-decision in Wednesday win over the Cardinals, allowing one run on five hits and three walks over six innings. He struck out two.

Impact While the right-hander wasn't dominant -- Elder managed just five swinging strikes among his 99 pitches (63 total strikes) -- he did deliver his first quality start of the season. He was actually on the hook for the loss however, until Atlanta's offense woke up in the seventh inning. Elder appears to have little competition for the fifth starter role at the moment, as AJ Smith Shawver lasted only 3.2 innings in his most recent start at Triple-A, and he'll take a 5.57 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 12:8 K:BB through 21 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come on the road early next week at Coors Field.

Avoids loss Friday Elder took a no-decision versus the Twins on Friday, allowing four runs on six hits and three walks while striking out three over five innings.

Impact Elder didn't have much going for him throughout this start, which saw Minnesota take a four-run lead in the fourth inning. Atlanta rallied back, and its five-run eighth inning was enough to get Elder off the hook. The right-hander has allowed at least three runs in all three of his starts this season, pitching to a 7.20 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 10:5 K:BB over 15 innings. It's not the start to the year he needed after struggling with a 6.52 ERA and 1.63 WHIP in 2024. He remains in the rotation for now and is tentatively lined up for a home start versus the Cardinals next week, but Atlanta may have to explore other options if Elder can't turn things around soon.

Gives up five runs in loss Elder (0-1) took the loss against the Rays on Friday. He allowed five runs on nine hits while striking out four across six innings.

Impact Elder started out nicely by retiring six of the first batters faced, but he proceeded to give up five runs over the next four frames, including a two-run home run to Danny Jansen in the fourth inning and a solo shot to Christopher Morel in the sixth. Elder was inserted into Atlanta's rotation after Reynaldo Lopez (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day injured list March 31. Elder has struggled in his two starts in the majors and has posted a 7.20 ERA and 1.40 WHIP across 10 innings. The 25-year-old right-hander could lose his spot in Atlanta's rotation and be sent back to Triple-A Gwinnet if Spencer Strider (elbow) returns from IL next week.

Can't capitalize on early lead Elder allowed three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out three batters over four innings in a no-decision against the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Impact Atlanta jumped out to a five-run lead through the top of the second inning, but Elder gave two runs back on a home run by Tommy Edman in the bottom of that frame. The Dodgers didn't score in the third, but Elder served up another long ball -- this time a solo shot by Michael Conforto -- in the fourth, and he didn't return for the fifth. The right-hander's start was his first of the season, which may partly explain why he was held to 70 pitches. Elder is in the rotation as a replacement for Reynaldo Lopez (shoulder), who landed on the injured list Monday. Lopez is likely to miss at least a few months, which could open the door for Elder to make additional starts, though he may lose his rotation role when Spencer Strider (elbow) is done with the rehab stint he began last weekend.

Recalled by Atlanta Atlanta recalled Elder from Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.

Impact The move corresponds with Atlanta placing Reynaldo Lopez on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation. Elder didn't make the Opening Day roster after posting a 4.97 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in spring training, but he'll join Atlanta's rotation and could start as soon as Wednesday against the Dodgers. He went 2-5 across 10 regular-season starts for Atlanta in 2024 with a 6.52 ERA and 1.63 WHIP across 49.2 innings.

MARCH 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A Elder was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Impact Elder will open the regular season at Triple-A after posting a 4.97 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with 12 strikeouts over 12.2 innings in five appearances, including one start, with Atlanta during the spring. Elder has combined to pitch in 224.1 innings over the last two seasons with Atlanta and he'll likely make his return to the major-league roster in the not too distant future.
