Lands on injured list Atlanta placed Riley on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a right abdominal strain.

Impact Riley's abdomen forced him to make an early exit during the fourth inning of Friday's contest, and now that further evaluation has confirmed a strain, he'll remain on the sidelines until at least July 22. Nacho Alvarez will come up from Triple-A Gwinnett to replenish Atlanta's infield depth, though Luke Williams is the most likely option to take over at third base until Riley returns.

Impact The third baseman took Mitch Spence deep in the second inning, staking Atlanta to an early 6-0 lead.

On the season, Riley's up to 13 home runs and 45 RBI in 88 games, but a .761 OPS would be his lowest mark since 2020.

JULY 2 • Associated Press

Doubles among trio of hits Riley went 3-for-4 with a double in Tuesday's 4-0 defeat to the Angels.

Impact The three-hit effort was Riley's fifth of the campaign and his first since June 9. The 28-year-old third baseman is batting a strong .286 over his last 98 at-bats, but he has only two home runs and nine RBI during this 24-game period. It's possible Riley will move down the batting order from fourth to fifth once Jurickson Profar (suspension) gets back into the fold, although the latter's return should only aid the former's fantasy upside.
