The Braves hit a season-high five home runs. The Braves went ahead and put him on the 60-day injured list. WASHINGTON D.C. — The Atlanta Braves are on a hot streak and won their 12th straight game Monday night.

Albies left Monday night's game in the fifth inning after an awkward swing.

Once he's placed on the injured list, he'll join a collection that includes starting outfielder Eddie Rosario, starting pitcher Mike Soroka, and high-leverage relievers Luke Jackson, Tyler Matzek, Collin McHugh, and Kirby Yates. Alternatively, the Braves could bring up prospect and former first-round pick Braden Shewmake, yet he's hit just .266/.320/.384 in 48 Triple-A games this season. Albies entered Monday hitting .246/.288/.408 (90 OPS+) with eight home runs on the season. "I hate it for Ozzie, and I hate it for us," manager Brian Snitker said via MLB.com. "It's unfortunate, but it's one of those things. He'll heal quick, but I just hate it for the kid because he loves to play baseball and he's such a big part of our club." A two-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger Award recipient, he hit .277/.329/.492 (109 OPS+) with 60 home runs between 2019-21.

All-Star second baseman Ozzie Albies will be absent from the Atlanta Braves lineup for an extended time after fracturing his foot during a game in ...

In his post-game comments to reporters Monday, Braves manager Brian Snitker said, “I hate it for Ozzie, and I hate it for us. Albies led the National League with 189 hits in 2019 but altered his approach in recent seasons to increase his power production. Other potential replacements for Albies include a trio of veterans at Triple-A Gwinnett, Atlanta’s top farm team. Fan voting for the starting lineups began last week. How long the diminutive switch-hitter is sidelined remains to be determined but he’ll almost certainly miss most of the summer. He also stole 20 bases, another personal best, while batting in various spots in the lineup.

The Braves brought infielder Phil Gosselin up from Triple-A and put Ozzie Albies (broken foot) on the 60-day IL. Read more at MLB Trade Rumors.

Depending on Albies’ outlook and whether surgery is required, it’s possible the Braves could look to the trade market to add a more clear-cut starting option. Gosselin returned to the Braves on a minor league deal this offseason and began the season with their Triple-A affiliate, where he’s slashed .297/.358/.473 through 204 plate appearances. The former top prospect has a much more tepid .244/.296/.366 batting line in his overall big league career, however, so fans shouldn’t expect Arcia to continue hitting anywhere near that torrid pace. It’s something of a homecoming for Gosselin, who was originally drafted by the Braves in the fifth round of the 2010 draft and made his big league debut with the team in 2013. Since being traded from the Braves to the D-backs, Gosselin has bounced around the league and now seen time with seven teams. That’s nothing new for Gosselin, who has played every position other than catcher and pitcher in his professional career.

The Atlanta Braves have finally started to heat up and are showing why they are the defending World Series champions. After a brutal start to the.

Albies has yet to be placed on the injured list, but that is basically a formality. Albies is one of the most impactful players in all of baseball and losing him for any amount of time definitely hurts for the Braves. For the Braves, this is a huge blow, and it’s hard to imagine Albies not missing a good chunk of time.

The red-hot Atlanta Braves will be without a key cog to their offense.

The reigning World Series champion Atlanta Braves have been on a tear lately, winning 12 in a row and moving within five games of the New York Mets for the NL East title. However, in a long fantasy baseball season, it was likely just a slow start for the infielder, who had thirty homers and 20 stolen bases in 2021. There's disappointing news for Atlanta Braves fans and fantasy managers: All-Star second baseman Ozzie Albies left the game vs.

The Atlanta Braves were delivered a tough blow on Monday night when star second baseman Ozzie Albies was forced to exit the game after fracturing.

Now it's a fractured foot. But now he figures to be out for a good chunk of time as a result of the injury. He fractured his olecranon (right elbow) in September of 2016.

Albies will miss at least two months after leaving Monday night's game.

Once he's placed on the injured list, he'll join a collection that includes starting outfielder Eddie Rosario, starting pitcher Mike Soroka, and high-leverage relievers Luke Jackson, Tyler Matzek, Collin McHugh, and Kirby Yates. The Braves do not have an abundance of infield depth from which to call upon. Albies entered Monday hitting .246/.288/.408 (90 OPS+) with eight home runs on the season. A two-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger Award recipient, he hit .277/.329/.492 (109 OPS+) with 60 home runs between 2019-21. It will be a lengthy absence, as the club put him on the 60-day injured list Tuesday. "I hate it for Ozzie, and I hate it for us," manager Brian Snitker said via MLB.com. "It's unfortunate, but it's one of those things.

Here are three players the Braves must trade for in 2022 after the Ozzie Albies injury, which is expected to sideline him indefinitely.

The Braves should be interested in Merrifield, who had his contract restructured by the team this offseason. The Braves, who have posted the third-worst strikeout rate in the league in 2022, would benefit from Castro’s above-average 18.7 percent K rate. That will work to the Braves’ benefit. This winning streak has seen them rise all the way to second place in the National League East, just five games back of the New York Mets. The Atlanta Braves have been baseball’s hottest team lately, as they are currently rolling to the tune of a 12-game winning streak. Albies suffered a fractured left foot during the contest, an injury that will cost him a significant portion of the season.
