Albies went 1-for-4 with a double in Tuesday's 3-0 win over Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
With three doubles in his last five games, Albies is beginning to tap into more power, but he remains in the midst of a long home-run drought that dates back to April 23. Even though he's moved to a typically run-producing-friendly role in the middle of the order since Ronald Acuna was cleared to make his season debut in late April, Albies has driven in only four runs over his last 21 games. Albies will remain in the lineup for Wednesday's series finale in Milwaukee, manning second base and batting fifth.

Albies went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 9-7 loss to the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
After Jazz Chisholm led off the game with a solo shot in the top of the first inning, Albies answered back in the bottom of the frame with his own leadoff blast, setting the tone for a wild day of offense. Albies is the unlikely MLB co-leader in home runs at the moment, as his six long balls has him tied with C.J. Cron, and all nine of the second baseman's nine hits have gone for extra bases, fueling his lopsided .242/.319/.581 slash line through 16 games.

Albies went 2-for-5 with a double, run and stolen base in a 3-1 victory against the Dodgers on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Albies doubled in the third inning, and singled, stole second and scored in the fifth to register his second multi-hit game of the season. The theft was the 25-year-old's first as he works toward his career high of 20 set last season and that speed, when paired with a slugging of .577 among the league leader puts Albies in rare company.

Albies went 1-for-5 with a solo home run Monday in a loss to the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Albies helped chase Dodgers starter Clayton Kershaw in the sixth inning with a 421-foot solo blast. That was the second baseman's only hit of the game, and he has only one multi-hit effort so far this season. Albies is batting .213 through 47 at-bats, but he is tied for the MLB lead with five long balls.

Albies went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
The second baseman has now homered in three straight games and four of the last five, extending his hitting streak to six games in the process. Despite the hot streak, Albies is only batting .237 (9-for-38) through the first 10 games of the season, but his four homers, six runs and eight RBI have given him plenty of fantasy value.

Albies went 1-for-5 with a home run and two strikeouts in Friday's win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Albies extended his hitting streak to five games and also went yard for the third time over his last four contests. Through 40 plate appearances this season, the star second baseman is hitting only .242 but has shown the same kind of power that made him go yard 30 times in 2021.

Albies went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Padres on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Albies' long ball was virtually meaningless in the overall context of the game -- it came in the ninth inning with the Braves down by 12 runs -- but it all counts the same in fantasy. The homer was the second in three contests for the star second baseman and extended his modest hitting streak to four games. After starting the season with just one hit in his first 12 at-bats, Albies has gone 6-for-16 over the four-game span.

Albies went 3-for-5 with a walk, a double, a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Tuesday's 16-4 rout of the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
His eighth-inning solo shot off utility man Dee Strange-Gordon may not be the most impressive feat of Albies' career, but it still counts as his first homer of 2022. The 25-year-old is still looking for his first stolen base but he's been giving himself plenty of opportunities to swipe it, posting a .370 OBP to go with a .476 SLG through six games.

Albies (general soreness) will start at second base and bat leadoff in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Albies was scratched ahead of Sunday's game against the Red Sox with general soreness, but the 25-year-old is apparently feeling well enough a day later to give it a go. Manager Brian Snitker has given all of Albies, Dansby Swanson and Eddie Rosario looks out of the leadoff role this spring, but it's unclear which of the three is on track to head into the regular season as Atlanta's table setter.

Albies was scratched from Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Red Sox with general soreness, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Albies was penciled in to serve as the designated hitter Sunday, but he'll instead take the day off to rest up. The 25-year-old is expected to be back in the lineup for the final exhibition games of spring Monday and Tuesday, so there doesn't appear to be much concern regarding the soreness.
