Albies (elbow) is expected to make his first appearance of the spring sometime this week, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Although Albies was originally slated to return to action Tuesday, his spring debut was pushed back due to a scheduling issue with his doctor, and not due to any lingering issues with the prospect's elbow. "I was going to play him (Tuesday)," manager Brian Snitker said. "He's ready. He's doing good. It's just that in the protocol of how they do things, they want to see you one more time before they turn you loose." The 20-year-old should be cleared by a doctor and ready to see his first action of spring within the week.
