Albies will start at second base and bat leadoff Sunday against the Nationals.
Batting out of the table-setting spot for the seventh game in a row, Albies appears to have supplanted Joc Pederson as Atlanta's preferred leadoff option versus both right- and left-handed pitching. However, Albies may need to start delivering better results to ensure he sticks atop the order. Over his first six starts in August, Albies has gone 3-for-24 while reaching base at a .250 clip.
