Hurston Waldrep To Be Evaluated by Doctors; Elder and Mederos Shine in Win | Atlanta Braves Podcast

Bryce Elder helped the Braves beat the Padres by leaning on his sinker for efficiency, limiting damage to two solo homers and pitching into the seventh. Victor Mederos secured his first pro save after Atlanta encouraged heavier four-seamer usage. Hurston Waldrep left a Triple-A rehab start with reduced velocity and control and will be evaluated. Alex Anthopoulos’ radio comments suggest few playoff-caliber starters may be available at the deadline, with no prospects truly off-limits, and a potential emphasis on mapping 27 postseason outs by bolstering the bullpen if necessary.
