Matt Adams “almost certainly” headed to Injured List; Ozzie Albies may join him

It was not all good news following the Braves’ 10-1 win over the Blue Jays on Tuesday night as Brian Snitker updated the statuses of Matt Adams and Ozzie Albies.

Adams, who homered in the second inning of Tuesday’s game, appeared to pull a hamstring while running out a ball in the fourth inning and immediately left the game. Fortunately for Adams the pull did not look to be overly serious, but one that seems “almost certain” to send him to the Injured List for some time, per Snitker.

Adams heading to the IL would presumably open up a spot for Nick Markakis, who re-joined the team last week after originally opting out due to COVID-19.
