J.P. Crawford (wrist) remains out of lineup Friday

J.P. Crawford

SEA Shortstop #3

Player Stats

J.P. Crawford (wrist) remains out of the Mariners’ starting lineup for Friday evening’s showdown against the Rangers.

It’s the fourth consecutive game that Crawford has missed due to soreness in his left wrist. If it lingers much longer into the weekend, the M’s may be forced to make a move rather than continuing to play short-handed. Weston Wilson will man third base in his absence and will bat eighth for the M’s against Rangers’ left-hander MacKenzie Gore.

J.P. Crawford

SEA Shortstop #3

J.P. Crawford (wrist) will begin a minor league rehab assignment for Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.

Crawford has been out with wrist inflammation since late July. His return can’t come fast enough with Seattle missing top prospect Colt Emerson and currently relying on Brock Rodden at shortstop.
Weston Wilson

SEA 3rd Baseman #31

Weston Wilson belted a solo home run on Thursday afternoon, powering the Mariners to a 1-0 victory over the Yankees in New York.

Wilson connected on a 2-2 cutter from Max Fried in the second inning, clubbing a 396-foot (104.1-mph EV) solo shot that gave the M’s an early 1-0 lead. That would be the extent of the scoring for both teams in the ballgame. Wilson finished the afternoon 1-for-2 plus a walk and is now hitting .204/.297/.357 with four homers and 11 RBI in 111 plate appearances at the MLB level this season.
Josh Naylor

SEA 1st Baseman #12

Josh Naylor is out of the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Yankees with right wrist soreness.

Naylor tweaked his wrist on a swing last week. It doesn’t sound like a significant concern, especially since he launched a pair of round-trippers during Sunday’s series finale against the Rays. However, the Mariners are going to proceed with an abundance of caution to prevent it from developing into a greater concern. Fantasy managers should consider Naylor day-to-day for now. It’ll be Weston Wilson taking over at the cold corner in his absence.
J.P. Crawford

SEA Shortstop #3

Mariners placed INF J.P. Crawford on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to July 30, with left wrist inflammation.

This move doesn’t come as a major surprise as Crawford missed the team’s previous two games with the injury and there were indications that a stint on the injured list was coming if he wasn’t ready to go by Friday. Leo Rivas was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move.
J.P. Crawford

SEA Shortstop #3

J.P. Crawford (wrist) was held out of the Mariners’ starting lineup once again on Thursday.

Crawford has now missed each of the Mariners’ last two games due to soreness in his wrist. While Mariners’ skipper Dan Wilson noted that no roster move is imminent just yet, they did acknowledge that there’s a chance Crawford winds up on the injured list.
Colt Emerson

SEA Shortstop #85

Colt Emerson was a late scratch from the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Dodgers.

No word on the reason for the swap. It’ll be J.P. Crawford taking over at shortstop and hitting ninth. An update on his status should arrive after the contest.
J.P. Crawford

SEA Shortstop #3

J.P. Crawford (wrist) is back in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Rangers.

Crawford is back at third base and hitting eighth following a four-game absence due to left wrist soreness. The 31-year-old’s return is an encouraging development for the Mariners as they sit on the edge of playoff contention with the trade deadline rapidly approaching.
J.P. Crawford

SEA Shortstop #3

J.P. Crawford (wrist) is out of the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Reds.

Crawford is day-to-day with left wrist soreness. It’ll be Colt Emerson drawing another start at shortstop in his absence.
J.P. Crawford

SEA Shortstop #3

J.P. Crawford is day-to-day with wrist soreness, according to manager Dan Wilson.

Crawford was scratched before Monday’s game against the Reds, but the Mariners didn’t give a reason at the time. Colt Emerson was inserted into the lineup in his place.

SEA Shortstop #3

J.P. Crawford was scratched from the lineup for Monday’s game against the Reds.

There’s no word yet on the reason for the move. It’ll be Colt Emerson drawing the start at shortstop on his 21st birthday. There should be an additional update on his status shortly, especially if he’s dealing with an injury-related issue.

Royals placed INF Maikel Garcia on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.

Garcia, who had just returned from the injured list on Monday, suffered a hamstring strain while running the bases in the first inning on Thursday night. It’s a brutal blow for the Royals and for fantasy managers who had been holding onto him with the hope that he’d be able to make a major impact down the stretch. Matthew Lugo was recalled from Triple-A Omaha in a corresponding move on Friday.

Cellucci was just promoted from Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday, but he’ll head right back there to clear a spot on their active roster for the return of Spencer Arrighetti (foot) on Friday. The 28-year-old southpaw did not make an appearance out of the bullpen during his brief stay with the Jays, so his MLB debut will have to wait.

The 27-year-old outfielder has really struggled during his time with the Jays this season, slashing a woeful .142/.295/.274 with three homers and 12 RBI in 140 plate appearances. He’ll add a right-handed bat to the bench with Josh Smith (hamstring) landing on the injured list on Friday.
