What It Means:

Folytnewicz's ERA ballooned to a career-worst 6.37 after he was pasted for eight runs over four-plus innings Saturday. The 27-year-old right-hander has struggled all season following a late start due to an elbow issue. Atlanta will call up an unnamed reliever ahead of Sunday afternoon's series finale against the Washington Nationals.

Folty owns a 6.37 ERA and 1.42 WHIP with 50 strikeouts and 20 walks over 59 1/3 innings. He's 2-5 in 11 starts.
