The Braves suffered a 6-2 loss to the Cardinals, impacting their NL Wild Card standing. Max Fried was placed on the injured list with left forearm neuritis, while Ozzie Albies broke his left wrist.
MRI on Fried showed no structural damage, offering hope for his return. Albies is expected to be out for eight weeks. The Braves face uncertainty on how these injuries will affect the rest of the season.
The call-up of top prospect Nacho Alvarez is a move to address Albies' absence. The Braves will need to navigate significant lineup and rotation challenges in the upcoming games.
