Atlanta placed Albies on the 10-day injured list Monday with a fractured left wrist.
Albies suffered the unfortunate injury during Sunday's game versus the Cardinals while attempting to apply a tag on a stolen-base attempt. The expectation is that he will miss about eight weeks of action, which would put Albies on the shelf until mid-September. Rookie Nacho Alvarez will get a chance to cover second base in Albies' absence, with Whit Merrifield and Zack Short also around to provide depth.
