    • Has clubhouse locker, not with team
      Crawford (oblique/hand) didn't travel with the team to Baltimore but still has a locker in the Blue Jays' clubhouse, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The veteran shortstop was hit by a pitch on the hand during a rehab game Wednesday, and he's experienced some swelling and soreness. Crawford has yet to join the team, but the fact he has a locker could indicate he still may return from the injured list this weekend. Rotowire.com Today, 1:51 pm
       
    • Mariners unsure when J.P. Crawford will return
      J.P. Crawford (hand, oblique) didn’t travel with the Mariners for Friday’s series opener against the Orioles.

      Advice: Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times adds that the Mariners aren’t certain when Crawford will return as he’s dealing with soreness and swelling in his right hand after being hit by a pitch during Wednesday’s rehab contest for Triple-A Tacoma. The 29-year-old shortstop will presumably undergo additional testing and imaging to determine the extent of the injury. There should be an update on his status at some point in the next few days.

    • Timeline to return unclear
      Crawford (oblique/hand) didn't travel with the team to Baltimore, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

      Advice: Crawford was hit by a pitch in the hand during a minor-league rehab assignment Wednesday and was still sore and swollen one day later. He doesn't have a clear timeline to return, and he managed only six plate appearances with Triple-A Tacoma prior to the new injury. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:06 pm
       
    • Hand injury considered minor
      The Mariners aren't concerned about Crawford's (oblique) right hand/wrist after he was hit by a pitch during Wednesday's game at Triple-A Tacoma, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Crawford's HBP forced him to make an early exit from Wednesday's minor-league game, but it appears he managed to escape the incident with no significant damage. The 29-year-old was expected to return from the IL ahead of Seattle's upcoming series versus the Orioles, though it remains unknown if those plans have changed as a result of his sore hand.

    • Exits rehab game after HBP
      Crawford (oblique) was removed from his rehab game at Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday after getting hit in the hand by a pitch.

      Advice: Crawford was visibly in pain after taking a 90-mph fastball off his right hand/wrist and was immediately taken out of the game by a trainer. He has been working his way back from a right oblique strain he suffered in late April, and Wednesday was expected to be his final appearance in the minors before rejoining the Mariners for their weekend series in Baltimore. However, the 29-year-old shortstop's return may be postponed if the damage to his hand proves to be significant. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:14 pm
       
    • J.P. Crawford exits rehab game after hit by pitch
      J.P. Crawford was pulled from his final rehab game at Triple-A Tacoma after being hit by a pitch on his right hand.

      Advice: Ouch. That’s certainly not what you want to see, especially when Crawford was set to rejoin the Mariners over the weekend. Presumably he’ll head for X-rays to see if there’s any structural damage. Stay tuned. Rotoworld Wednesday, 8:07 pm
       
    • J.P. Crawford likely to be activated Friday
      J.P. Crawford is likely to come off the I.L. on Friday after one more rehab game on Wednesday.

      Advice: Crawford went 1-for-4 in his first game for Triple-A Tacoma last night. The shortstop is returning from a strained oblique muscle. The Mariners will likely demote Leo Rivas when Crawford is activated. Rotoworld Wednesday, 11:54 am
       
    • Eyeing weekend return
      Mariners manager Scott Servais said Crawford (oblique) will play another rehab game for Triple-A Tacoma before likely returning from the 10-day injured list ahead of this weekend's series in Baltimore, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Crawford, who has been on the shelf since April 25 with a Grade 1 right oblique strain, kicked off his rehab assignment Tuesday, going 1-for-4 in Tacoma's 8-5 win over Salt Lake while playing seven innings at shortstop. Assuming Crawford feels fine physically coming out of his second rehab outing, he should be ready to rejoin the big club this weekend and settle back in as the team's everyday shortstop. Dylan Moore will shift back into a utility role once Crawford is back with the team. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 11:51 am
       
    • Gunnar Henderson bats cleanup versus Blue Jays
      Gunnar Henderson, who had led off for the Orioles every game this season, is in the cleanup spot for Wednesday’s game.

      Advice: It seems like this is a consequence of the struggling Cedric Mullins being dropped to the ninth spot today, and manager Brandon Hyde not wanting to stack lefties. Still, Henderson hits more like a No. 3 or No. 4 hitter than a leadoff man anyway; he’s sitting at .264/.339/.553 this year and .257/.331/.495 for his career. Jordan Westburg is leading off today. It’d be great for his value if this becomes permanent, but it doesn’t sound like that’s what Hyde is planning at the moment. Rotoworld Wednesday, 8:16 am
