Albies went 2-for-5 with one RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 8-7 extra-inning win over Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
Albies has hit safely in his last four games, but this was his first multi-hit effort since April 18 versus Minnesota. The second baseman also picked up his third steal of the season and his first since he swiped a bag in back-to-back contests April 12 and 13 versus the Rays. Albies is up to .240/.301/.394 slash line with four home runs, 13 RBI, 15 runs scored and four doubles over 26 games. He has yet to be challenged for playing time at the keystone.

Albies went 2-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's loss to the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
The second baseman only has two stolen bases on the season, but they came in back-to-back games this past weekend in Tampa Bay. Albies has hit safely in six straight games and eight of 10 to kick off April, batting .286 (12-for-42) so far this month with two doubles, two homers, five RBI and six runs.

Albies went 1-for-3 with a solo homer and a walk in Friday's 6-3 loss to Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Albies hadn't recorded a home run since Opening Day, but he took Edwin Uceta deep to right field for a 342-foot solo homer. Albies has recorded a hit in six of his last seven outings, and over that span he has gone 8-for-31 with five runs, two doubles, one home run and three RBI.

Albies went 1-for-5 with a two-run homer and an additional RBI in Thursday's 7-4 loss to the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Albies opened the scoring in the first inning with an RBI fielder's choice before putting Atlanta ahead 3-2 in the fourth with a 413-foot blast off Michael King. The biggest question for Albies will be health in 2025 -- the 28-year-old second baseman was limited to 99 games last season, during which he slashed .251/.303/.404 with 10 homers and eight stolen bases.

Albies went 0-for-3 in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
The switch-hitting second baseman has been getting his work in this spring, and while Albies hasn't had much luck at the plate, he also hasn't raised any alarms with his play. Through 26 plate appearances, he's gone 4-for-24 with a double as his only extra-base hit and a 2:6 BB:K. Albies is locked into his starting job at the keystone and a prime spot in Atlanta's batting order.

Albies went 2-for-3 with two walks, a double, a home run and five RBI in an 8-7 loss to the Mets during the first game of Monday's doubleheader.
EDGE Analysis
With Atlanta needing at least one win in the twin bill to make the playoffs, Albies did everything he could in the matinee to book his team's postseason tickets. The second baseman opened the scoring with a two-run homer off Tylor Megill in the third inning, then put his squad back on top in the eighth with a bases-loaded double, only to watch the bullpen implode further in the top of the ninth. Albies also contributed in a 3-0 win in the nightcap, going 1-for-4 with a run scored. The 27-year-old heads into the NL Wild Card Round having gone just 7-for-38 (.184) in nine games since making his late-season return from a wrist injury, but with two homers, five runs scored and seven RBI.

Albies went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Hitting right-handed against righty Darren McCaughan, Albies lofted the second pitch he saw in the first inning down the left-field line. It was Albies' first long ball in three games since coming off the IL, and first since July 6. The 27-year-old still isn't able to bat left-handed due to soreness in his wrist, but that might not be a bad thing for his production over the final week of the regular season -- he has just a .225/.292/.360 slash line this year in 298 plate appearances while hitting from the left side of the plate.

Atlanta activated Albies (wrist) from the 10-day injured list Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Albies is finally ready to rejoin Atlanta's lineup after missing most of the second half with a fractured left wrist. The switch hitter will bat only from the right side of the plate for the time being, as he still feels some discomfort when hitting left-handed. Albies has always been a stronger hitter from the right side of the dish, boasting a career .932 OPS versus southpaws.

Albies (wrist) will be activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's game in Miami, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Things were pointing in that direction, but Atlanta presumably wanted to wait to see how he bounced back from a couple rehab games with Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday and Wednesday before officially clearing him to return to the active roster. The switch-hitting Albies will bat exclusively from the right side upon his return, at least initially, due to continued discomfort in his fractured left hand when swinging from the left side.
