Braves' Ozzie Albies: Cleared for rehab assignment
Atlanta manager Brian Snitker confirmed Monday that Albies (wrist) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
The plan is for Albies to play for Gwinnett on Tuesday and Wednesday before rejoining Atlanta's active roster Friday in Miami, assuming all goes well. Albies has been sidelined since late July with a fractured left wrist.

Braves' Ozzie Albies: Aiming to return this weekend
Albies (wrist) could begin a rehab assignment Tuesday and return from the 10-day injured list for Atlanta's series in Miami this weekend, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
At last check, Albies was still struggling to swing the bat from the left side of the plate due to soreness in his fractured left wrist. It's not clear whether the switch hitter has progressed in that regard or is considering returning only as a right-handed hitter. Albies will be the everyday second baseman when he returns, pushing Whit Merrifield to third base, left field or a bench role.

Braves' Ozzie Albies: Return this season uncertain
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.

Braves' Ozzie Albies: Struggling to hit from left side
Manager Brian Snitker said Friday that Albies (wrist) is having some issues with his left-handed swing, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
The switch hitter isn't having difficulty from the right side of the plate, but batting from the left side is presenting some problems as he recovers from a fractured left wrist. Albies is hoping to rejoin Atlanta in mid-September, but the swing issues could be a major hurdle in his rehab.

Albies (wrist) is no longer wearing a brace and took fielding practice Tuesday, Grant McAuley of 92.9 The Game Atlanta reports.
Albies is doing some swinging in the cage but has not been cleared to hit yet. Sunday will be the six-week mark of his projected 6-to-8 week absence with a left wrist fracture, and things are trending to a return toward the back end of that timetable.

Braves' Ozzie Albies: Now wearing soft cast
Albies is now wearing a soft cast on his fractured left wrist, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
There still isn't a definitive timetable for when Albies can begin swinging a bat, but he should be getting close after swapping out his hard cast for a soft one. The second baseman has continued to run and throw since going on the 10-day injured list in late July due to wrist fracture. Albies is expected back around mid-September.

Braves' Ozzie Albies: Lands on IL with fractured wrist
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.
