Albies was in the weight room without a walking boot Friday and manager Brian Snitker said Albies is "feeling really good," Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Albies donned the walking boot for a ceremony Snitker and he took part in but it sounds like the skipper is pretty optimistic about his second baseman's status. It was reported a couple weeks ago that Albies could return in mid-to-late August.

Albies (foot) is hoping to return in mid-to late-August, Jeff Schultz of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
General manager Alex Anthopoulos noted that Albies is at 75 percent weight-bearing on his surgically repaired left foot. Albies will still need to build through a progression of fielding his position and running the bases prior to going on a rehab assignment, but it appears as though he is at least on schedule -- if not a bit ahead.

Atlanta announced that Albies underwent successful surgery Wednesday in Green Bay, Wis. to stabilize a fracture in his left foot.
EDGE Analysis
The club's decision to place Albies on the 60-day injured list a day earlier signaled that surgery was a likely outcome for the 25-year-old, who broke his foot during a plate appearance in Monday's win over the Nationals. Atlanta hasn't announced whether it anticipates Albies missing more than the minimum two months, and a clearer target date for his return may not come until he's able to resume baseball activities. Orlando Arcia is expected to serve as Atlanta's primary second baseman while Albies is on the mend from surgery.

Atlanta placed Albies (foot) on the 60-day injured list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Albies' placement on the 60-day IL comes as little surprise after he was diagnosed with a fractured left foot shortly after exiting Monday's 9-5 win over the Nationals. A timeline for his return likely won't become available until a decision is made regarding whether Albies will require surgery, but even if he avoids a procedure, he'll be sidelined for a minimum of two months as a result of Tuesday's transaction. Phil Gosselin was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett to take Albies' spot on the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster, but David O'Brien of The Athletic expects Orlando Arcia to get the first crack at replacing Albies as Atlanta's everyday second baseman.

Albies has been diagnosed with a fractured left foot after leaving Monday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
It's too early to know when Albies could be back in action, but he will undoubtedly require a trip to the injured list. Look for Orlando Arcia to step in at second base with Albies out of commission for the foreseeable future.

Albies went 1-for-3 with a home run and four RBI on Wednesday against the Athletics.

In 161 at-bats between going yard, Albies has slugged just .317. Despite the power outage, Albies has scored 32 runs, tallied 28 RBI and swiped three bags while hitting .248 across 245 plate appearances on the season.

Albies isn't starting Friday's game against the Rockies, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Albies has hit .333 with four doubles, five runs, a walk and two strikeouts over the last five games, but he'll get a breather Friday. Orlando Arcia will start at the keystone and bat seventh.

Albies went 1-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Sunday's loss to the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
He nearly led Atlanta to a ninth-inning comeback from a 4-1 deficit, doubling home Travis d'Arnaud before scoring himself on a Dansby Swanson groundout, but no one else on the team stepped up. Albies has hit safely in five straight games and is slashing .266/.272/.316 through 19 contests in May with a steal, six RBI and 12 runs, though he hasn't homered since April 23.
