Ozzie Albies Undergoes Foot Surgery, Expected To Return This Season

By Anthony Franco | June 15, 2022 at 4:43pm CDT

4:43pm: Toscano writes that the Braves do anticipate Albies being able to return at some point this season.

2:43pm: Ozzie Albies recently underwent surgery to repair the fracture in his left foot, tweets Justin Toscano of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. It isn’t clear what impact, if any, the procedure has on his recovery timeline. In any event, Albies won’t be back until at least mid-August after landing on the 60-day injured list yesterday.

Albies fractured his foot during Monday night’s win over the Nationals. He stumbled out of the batter’s box after hitting a ground-ball, and the club announced the fracture diagnosis within an hour of his departing the game. Atlanta wasted no time in putting him on the 60-day IL the next morning, selecting utilityman Phil Gosselin to take his roster spot. Orlando Arcia will be the club’s primary second baseman for the foreseeable future.

A two-time All-Star, Albies had been off to a bit of a slow start this year, posting a personal-worst .244/.289/.405 line through 263 trips to the plate. Arcia has hit well through 18 games this season, but he’s a career .245/.296/.368 hitter at the major league level. The Braves will presumably want to see whether he can keep performing at anywhere near this season’s .327/.393/.519 pace, but it seems likely the club will at least look into possible acquisitions before the August 2 trade deadline — particularly if Arcia’s bat cools in the next month.

The Braves have won 13 in a row, pulling themselves within five games of the NL East-leading Mets entering play Wednesday. At 36-27, Atlanta currently occupies the third and final Wild Card spot in the National League, holding a two-game advantage over the Brewers.

    I really hope this wasn’t a Lisfranc fracture. Those are really tricky to fix and tend to reoccur even after having surgery to repair it. Hopefully he recovers fine and is no worse for the wear. I’m still shocked that he broke is foot on the swing; no foul ball off the foot. Apparently he stumbled because he had already fractured his foot during the swing. What a strange injury!

      He’s had a weird history of sudden failure injuries. If I remember correctly right before they were going to call him up he fractured his elbow on a swing. Here it is-

        Hence the team-friendly contract.

      Yeah, Lisfranc foot fractures are tough to fully recover from. Allen Craig just to name one example suffered one of those while in his early prime, and he was never the same again.

    Amazing that any club who won 13 in a row is still 5 full games back. Wonder if that is a record of some sort.

      Phillies won 10 of 12. Braves won 13 in a row. Shows you how bad both teams were playing before June. Also shows you how consistent the Mets have been.

        Should be a hot race through end of August, now that the Braves and Phillies have righted themselves. Can’t expect more than that right now because you don’t know which team will have the next shoulder impingement, or forearm strain, or stress reaction or lat injury. What ever happened to the dreaded Rotator Cuff injury? Oh, right, that was back in the day of the “Disabled List.”

      Weren’t the Braves down like 12 games? They started off terrible. They still made a huge move up the standings back into the race.

    I hope he recovers and gets to play soon. He will be sorely missed, but the Braves are good enough to compete even without him. I don’t think they’ll suffer the agony of “defeet.”

      Not to worry Von, his grandma says he’s grown a foot since he was 15. He’ll be back soon
