The Atlanta Braves are confident that they’ll make the playoffs this season despite being plagued by injuries. The Braves are leaning into their rotation, hoping the team’s pitching can power a postseason run. And Atlanta could have starting second baseman Ozzie Albies back in the lineup in the coming weeks.
Albies is set to do some fielding on Tuesday, according to The Athletic’s David O’Brien on X. While he hasn’t been cleared for batting practice, Albies has taken some swings in the cages. He’s at week-six of an anticipated six-eight week absence.
