Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Grant Holmes is a 30-year-old right-handed pitcher for the Atlanta Braves who has shown inconsistency in 2026. After struggling with control issues and failing to complete six innings in multiple starts (5.95 ERA, 1.93 WHIP over a four-start stretch in early May), Holmes had his start skipped on May 6. However, he has since rebounded with a quality start against Boston on May 17 (6 scoreless innings, 4 K's, 3.80 ERA). Holmes currently carries a 3-1 record with a 3.80 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, and 38:22 K:BB ratio across 47.1 innings. He has demonstrated the ability to pitch efficiently when on, but has struggled with command consistency and durability, failing to complete six innings in four of his last five starts at one point.
