Edwards went 4-for-6 with a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's extra-inning loss to the Mets.

The shortstop rolled into the game having gone 4-for-22 (.182) through his first six starts of the season, but Edwards doubled both his hit and steal totals with Wednesday's performance. Base knocks figure to come in bunches for the 25-year-old after he slashed .328/.397/.423 over 303 plate appearances in a breakout 2024, but even as Miami's everyday leadoff hitter, his fantasy value remains capped due to his lack of power and lack of a reliable supporting cast.

Made is on Double-A Harrisburg's injured list due to an oblique injury, Sam Dykstra of MLB Pipeline reports.

He picked up the injury this spring and is expected back in the coming weeks. Made was just above league average (103 wRC+) at High-A last year despite hitting just one home run. He hit .158 with one home run and two steals in 21 games at Double-A.

Allen went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Dodgers.

Atlanta's entire lineup has struggled out of the gates en route to an 0-7 start, and while Orlando Arcia's lack of offense has been far from the biggest problem, the veteran has gone 2-for-13 (.54) with zero extra-base hits and five strikeouts in four appearances to begin the year. That's opened the door for Allen to get a look, and the former Athletic has responded with three hits and two steals while making two straight starts at shortstop. Allen is better known for his glove than his bat, but the same could be said for Arcia, and the former is four years younger. It's unlikely Atlanta will give up on Arcia that quickly, but his disappointing .625 OPS in 2024 may have undermined his job security more than anyone expected.

Perdomo went 0-for-2 with an RBI sacrifice fly in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Yankees.

Perdomo saw an end to a season-opening five-game hit streak but had a run-producing sacrifice fly in the second inning. The ninth-place hitter delivered a run for fifth time in six games and ranks second on the club with seven RBI. Perdomo's line is .350/.348/.400 along with the seven RBI, two runs and a steal over 24 plate appearances.

Turner went 3-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's 5-1 win against the Rockies.

Turner didn't start in any of the Phillies' previous three games while dealing with back spasms, though he was able to pinch run Monday. That appearance served as a precursor to his return to the lineup and to the field Wednesday, and the veteran shortstop showed no ill effects from the back issue, as he tallied three hits -- including an RBI single in the seventh inning. Turner has reached base safely in five of his first 11 plate appearance to begin the campaign.

De La Cruz went 1-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Texas.

De La Cruz doubled then stole third base in the fourth inning but was left on base. The steal was De La Cruz's second of the season. Through six games, he's batting .333 (8-for-24) and is the lone Reds regular with an average above .250.

Abrams went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to Toronto.

Abrams got the Nationals on the board in the sixth inning, when he took Brendon Little deep for a 386-foot solo homer to right field. Abrams had a productive series in Toronto despite Washington being swept, with the 24-year-old shortstop going 5-for-12 with two doubles, three runs, two home runs and three RBI. The Nationals have an off day Thursday before starting a three-game home series against the Diamondbacks on Friday.

Arcia isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers.

Arcia will get a second consecutive day off after beginning the season 2-for-13 with five strikeouts. Nick Allen will fill in at shortstop and bat sixth.

Turner (back) will start at shortstop and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game versus the Rockies.

Turner will make his first start since Opening Day, as he's been battling lower-back spasms. He appeared as a pinch hitter in Monday's 6-1 win and is back in the lineup for the second game of the series Wednesday.

Adames will start at shortstop and bat second in Wednesday's game against the Astros, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

After inking a $182 million deal in free agency this winter, Adames has quickly found a home in the No. 2 spot in the lineup, batting out of that spot in the order in each of the Giants' first six games. Though the Giants head into Wednesday's contest with a 4-1 record, Adames hasn't played a big role in the team's early success thus far; he's slashing just .158/.190/.211 with three RBI and one run.
