Matt Adams out of Braves' lineup with knee issue
Atlanta Braves first baseman Matt Adams is starting on Friday against the Oakland Athletics.
What It Means:
Adams left Thursday's game in the second inning with a left foot contusion after fouling a ball off himself. X-rays came back negative, but it's unknown how much time he may miss. Jace Peterson is filling in at first base and batting eighth versus Athletics right-hander Sonny Gray.
Without accounting for any missed time, numberFire's models project Adams to record a .267 batting average with 10 home runs and 32 RBI in 213 plate appearances over the remainder of the season.
