Ozzie Albies Absent From Lineup With Wrist Ailment
Ozzie Albies (wrist) is set to miss his first game of the 2020 season, as manager Brian Snitker revealed Friday that Albies was dealing with a right wrist issue, although there exists the possibility that he could pinch hit later in the contest. Adeiny Hechavarria will take his spot at second base, with the scorching-hot Dansby Swanson slotting into the No. 2 spot in the order. Albies has gotten off to a slow start in 2020, going 6-for-31 (.194) at the dish with eight strikeouts and one walk. His next chance to get back into the starting nine comes Saturday against the Mets when right-hander Michael Wacha is projected to take the mound.
