Atlanta Braves news and notes from Wednesday Ozzie Albies appears to be nearing his right-handed return. Whit Merrifield could move to third base once that happens, but time will tell. Meanwhile the Braves kept pace with the wild-card field, with a win in Cincy. They are still two games back of the Mets and Diamondbacks, but with 10 games left and 3 against the Mets, they still have a shot. It also helps that the Diamondbacks have not been playing especially well recently.
