Manager Brian Snitker said Friday that he's not sure if Albies (wrist) will play again in 2024, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
Albies fractured his left wrist in late July and has been on the shelf since. His rehab hasn't progressed as quickly as Atlanta hoped, and he's specifically struggled to swing a bat from the left side. Snitker said the team hasn't seriously considered using Albies exclusively from the right side of the plate, but that may be his only path back to the lineup in 2024. Whit Merrifield has been holding down second base in place of Albies.
