ATLANTA -- Blessed with speed, athleticism and the kind of power you wouldn't expect from a guy who might make Jose Altuve feel tall, Ozzie Albies has spent the past three weeks tackling the challenges that have arisen since he made his much-anticipated Major League debut on Aug. 1.
As Albies progressed through his first two weeks as a big leaguer, he showed why some scouts were concerned about his swing from the left side of the plate. But the 20-year-old second baseman's determination to adjust has seemingly started to pay dividends as he notched his third multi-hit game within a five-game span during Monday's 6-5 loss to the Mariners at SunTrust Park.
