Lopez was removed from Sunday's start against the Mets as a precaution due to right forearm tightness.
Lopez threw 57 pitches and struck out two batters over three scoreless innings before being lifted from Sunday's contest due to the injury. The right-hander should be considered day-to-day for now, and his availability for the next turn through the rotation is up in the air, as he's scheduled to undergo an MRI, per Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
