Bryce Elder had a solid debut for the Atlanta Braves and will stay in the rotation and start Sunday’s series finale per The Athletic’s David O’Brien. Brian Snitker informed reporters during Thursday’s pregame media session. The move will give Huascar Ynoa an additional day of rest.

#Braves’ Bryce Elder will make his second start Sunday at San Diego, Brian Snitker said. It’ll allow Ynoa to have extra day of rest. Elder will be on regular rest after his outstanding debut performance Tuesday.
