Chen (elbow) has been confirmed as the starting pitcher for Friday's game against the Braves, according to MLB.com's Joe Frisaro.

EDGE Analysis

Chen had his last start skipped due to soreness in his elbow, but he will get back on the bump Friday night. He will square off against a Braves team that sits 14th in the NL in runs, but he could be a bit rusty having not pitched in 10 days, and will go up against a lineup loaded with right-handed hitters.
