Braves Star Makes Virtually Unprecedented Return From Injury

The Atlanta Braves have dealt with extended injury absences this season - catcher Sean Murphy, who injured his oblique in the team's season opener, has missed twenty-two games (and counting), while ace Spencer Strider will miss the entirety of the 2024 season recovering from right elbow surgery.

But they've also gotten lucky on the injury front with a few players.

Second baseman Ozzie Albies, who suffered a broken toe when hit by a pitch on April 15th against the Houston Astros, was officially activated off the injured list this morning and is expected to be back in the lineup tonight when Atlanta kicks off their weekend series against the AL Central-leading Cleveland Guardians.
