SEPTEMBER 24 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Not returning in 2024 Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said Tuesday that Riley (hand) won't return this season, Grant McAuley of 92.9 The Game Atlanta reports.
Impact The 27-year-ond underwent a CT scan Monday which showed that his hand fracture is healing slower than expected, which will prevent Riley from having a chance to take the field again this season. Atlanta is currently 1.5 games back of the final wild-card spot in the National League, but Riley won't be an option to play even if the team makes a playoff run. The third baseman closes out 2024 with 19 homers and a .256/.322/.461 slash line in 110 games.

Could have cast removed Monday Riley (hand) will undergo a CT scan Monday to determine whether he can have his cast removed, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Being able to get the cast removed then will give Riley a shot to return at some point during the postseason should Atlanta make a run, although it's not clear how likely his return would be. Riley also revealed Friday that the fracture to his right hand he suffered back in mid-August was to his hamate bone.
