Edwards is receiving imaging on his lower back this weekend, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Edwards left in the third inning of Friday's game against the Cubs after sustaining a lower-back injury during a steal attempt in the second frame. The results of the imaging will determine whether Edwards will need a stint on the IL or just a few days of rest. The 25-year-old is in the midst of a five-game hitting streak and is slashing .349/.428/.436 with 22 stolen bases, 25 runs scored, one home run and 17 RBI across 202 plate appearances this season. In the interim, Vidal Brujan will see more playing time at shortstop for as long as Edwards is sidelined.
