Albies (elbow) has been cleared by doctors and will start at second base in Thursday's exhibition, 680 The Fan's Kevin McAlpin reports.

He missed the start of Grapefruit League play as he was still working his way back from elbow surgery, but will be able to return in time to make a strong impression on the big league coaching staff. Albies is a uniquely advanced hitter for a 20-year-old, and should make his big league debut later this season. He has the speed to steal 20-plus bases annually, but is unlikely to ever hit double-digit homers in a season.
