Hits two-run shot Albies went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Monday's NLCS Game 1 win against the Dodgers.

Impact Albies gave the Braves a pair of insurance runs with his homer off Jake McGee in the top of the ninth, extended Atlanta's lead from 3-1 to 5-1. He's now homered twice in 15 career postseason games but still owns a poor .233/.277/.350 playoff slash line.

Three hits in route Albies went 3-for-4 with a solo home run Tuesday, as the Braves beat the Marlins 11-1.

Impact Albies smashed his sixth homer of the season in the second inning and has three bombs over his past seven games. He is a scorching 11-for-28 over that same stretch. He raised his average to .289 with Tuesday's performance.

Swats two homers in win Albies went 2-for-5 with two home runs, three RBI and two runs scored Friday as the Braves beat the Mets 15-2.

Impact Albies capped off a six-run fourth inning with a two-run blast that barely cleared the wall in left to put the Braves up 12-0. Later in the sixth, he hit his second one and the sixth overall of the night by the Braves to extend their lead to 13-1. Since returning from the injured list Sept 9, Albies is hitting .378/.410/.757 with four home runs, eight RBI and 10 runs scored after struggling mightily to begin the season. He'll look to stay hot as the Braves continue to fight for playoff positioning before the regular season concludes at the end of the month.

Stays hot Sunday Albies went 1-for-3 with a walk, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Sunday's win over the Nationals.

Impact His sixth-inning blast off Max Scherzer proved to be the game-winning hit in an 8-4 victory. Albies has been on fire since coming off the IL, hitting .364 (8-for-22) with a double, two homers, three steals, five RBI and seven runs over his last five games.

Huge showing at plate in return Albies (wrist) went 3-for-6 with a home run, two RBI and three runs scored Wednesday as the Braves pummeled the Marlins, 29-9.

Impact Wednesday marked Albies' first game back since hitting the injured list Aug. 4 with a right wrist contusion, and he wasted no time making his presence felt, getting the Braves on the board in the second with an RBI groundout. Albies would eventually come up to bat for a second time in the same inning and put an exclamation point on an 11-run frame by teaming up with Adam Duvall for back-to-back home runs. Prior to his stint on the IL, Albies was hitting .159/.196/.273 with a home run, six RBI and 13 strikeouts in 11 games, so he may continue to be slotted in towards the bottom of the batting order until he starts consistently showing he can get on base at a higher clip.

Facing shutdown Albies (wrist) will be shut down for a week to see if his injury heals, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Impact Albies was placed on the 10-day injured list earlier Wednesday, but manager Brian Snitker revealed that he won't throw or hit for at least a week. Snitker said that it could take longer than a week for the injury to heal, so it's unclear when he'll be ready to return to the field. Adeiny Hechavarria and Johan Camargo should see increased time at second base as long as Albies is sidelined.

Lands on IL The Braves placed Albies (wrist) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Impact Albies had been tending to a right wrist bone contusion since Friday, but he was cleared to appear as a pinch hitter later that day in a game against the Mets before going on to start three of the team's next four contests. The 23-year-old clearly wasn't right at the dish, however, going 1-for-13 with five strikeouts since the injury first surfaced. The Braves will give Albies some much-needed downtime to heal up from the injury, which will likely pave the way for Adeiny Hechavarria and Johan Camargo to see more reps at the keystone. Albies will first be eligible to return from the IL on Aug. 15.

Could move to injured list Manager Brian Snitker said the Braves will discuss the possibility of Albies (wrist) being placed on the injured list, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact It's somewhat of a surprising development, as the 23-year-old started each of the last two games and wasn't removed early Tuesday despite Atlanta entering the ninth inning with a 10-1 lead. Albies has been managing right wrist soreness over the past few days, and he's gone 1-for-9 with four strikeouts during that stretch. Adeiny Hechavarria is likely to work at second base should the young infielder end up on the injured list.

AUGUST 3, 2020 • TALKINGCHOP.COM

Back in lineup Monday Albies (wrist) is in the lineup Monday against the Mets, batting second.

Impact Albies has been nursing a right wrist issue over the past several days, but he'll start for the second time in the past four games. Although he's back in the lineup for the series finale against the Mets on Monday, the Braves could still exercise caution with their second baseman as he continues to recover.

Ozzie Albies out of the lineup again on Sunday Albies is dealing with a wrist issue.

AUGUST 2, 2020 • TALKINGCHOP.COM

Filling in for Albies Hechavarria will start at second base and bat ninth Sunday against the Mets.

Impact He'll be making his second start of the series in place of Ozzie Albies, who continues to manage a wrist injury. Manager Brian Snitker characterized Albies' absence from the lineup Sunday as more of a maintenance day, so Hechavarria doesn't look like he'll be in line to fill an everyday role in the near future.
