3 years agoThe Atlanta Braves recalled left-hander Kyle Muller from the minors on Sunday, and he will start in the series finale against the Texas Rangers. In a corresponding move, the team optioned right-hander Bryce Elder to Triple-A Gwinnett after Saturday's game. Lefty Max Fried will be pushed back to the series opener on Monday against the New York Mets. Elder began the year in the starting rotation, but he was sent down after having his third straight rough outing on Saturday, when he allowed three earned runs on four hits and three walks in 4 1/3 innings. Muller had 28 strikeouts in 19 2/3 innings for Gwinnett before his call-up, and he posted a 4.17 ERA, a 1.25 WHIP and 37:20 K:BB in 36 2/innings over nine outings (eight starts) for Atlanta last year.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
