Austin Riley Out Six to Eight Weeks
Atlanta Braves third baseman Austin Riley is expected to miss six to eight weeks due to a fractured right hand, an injury sustained from a 97-mph fastball during a game against the Los Angeles Angels. This injury adds to the Braves' woes as they are already dealing with several other key players being sidelined, including Ronald Acuña Jr. and Spencer Strider. Riley's absence poses a significant challenge for the Braves, who are currently holding onto the final National League Wild Card spot, with a two-game lead over the New York Mets. Despite the injury setbacks, the Braves are hopeful Riley might return during the postseason if they qualify. The team is considering Luke Williams, Whit Merrifield, and top prospect Nacho Alvarez as potential replacements at third base.
