Edman isn't starting Wednesday against San Diego, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Edman will get a day off after he went 4-for-19 with four runs, an RBI, two stolen bases and five strikeouts over the last four games. Edmundo Sosa is starting at shortstop and batting seventh.

Turner went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Pirates.

Turner's third-inning homer was the Dodgers' only extra-base hit of the contest. The shortstop has been locked in at the plate with a 23-game hitting streak -- he's gone 32-for-91 (.352) in that span. The three-week surge has him up to a .298/.357/.461 slash line with six homers, 41 RBI, 23 runs scored, 10 stolen bases, 12 doubles and two triples in 49 contests overall.

Marcano went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Dodgers.

Marcano has somewhat surprisingly homered in back-to-back games, with his second-inning blast Tuesday giving the Pirates all the offense they needed to win. The 22-year-old has hit safely in five of his six games this season. He's posted two homers, five RBI, five runs scored and a double across 20 plate appearances. Marcano is likely to see a utility role while in the majors.

Edman went 0-for-5 with a run scored and a stolen base in a 3-2 win Tuesday over San Diego.

Edman began the bottom of the 10th inning as the automatic runner on second base and swiped third. He came around to score the winning run on Albert Pujols' sacrifice fly. After a strong April, he compiled a .259/.323/.371 batting line and seven stolen bases in the month of May, very similar to his .259/.310/.382 combined line from 2020 and 2021.

Adames (ankle) isn't in the lineup for Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday after experiencing discomfort in his right quadriceps during his first rehab game, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

The 26-year-old went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and a walk during his first rehab appearance Sunday, but he apparently picked up the quad issue and won't play Tuesday. Nashville has a scheduled day off Wednesday, and Adames is expected to be back on the field for Thursday's contest, so the injury doesn't appear to be a serious concern.

Crawford will sit Tuesday against the Phillies, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Crawford finds himself on the bench for just the fourth time all season. He owns a .591 OPS over his last 14 games and has gone hitless in his last two, so it does look as though he could use a day off. Donovan Walton will start at shortstop.

Camargo will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Tuesday's game against the Giants.

Camargo seems to have wrested the starting shortstop job back from Bryson Stott, who is on the bench Tuesday for the fourth game in a row. Didi Gregorius (knee) is set to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday and could be back by the end of the week, however, so Camargo's standing atop the depth chart likely won't last much longer.

Lindor went 3-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base in Monday's 13-5 win over the Nationals.

The shortstop is on fire right now, racking up six multi-hit performances in the last 11 games and batting .364 (16-for-44) over that stretch. The hot streak has boosted Lindor's slash line on the season to .262/.350/.450 with eight homers, seven steals, 37 runs and 40 RBI through 50 contests.

Ahmed (undisclosed) resumed light baseball activity May 27, Jack Sommers of MLB.com reports.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Ahmed is still dealing with fatigue, while the shortstop said he's "responded OK from" taking batting practice, fielding light groundballs and playing catch. "It hit me quick and hard," Ahmed said of the virus. "I've been trying to recover since. I'm still not back to normal yet, unfortunately." Geraldo Perdomo is the primary starter at shortstop while Ahmed works his way back.

Marcano went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in a 6-5 win against the Dodgers on Monday.

In just his fifth game of the year, Marcano delivered a big shot against one of the NL's top pitchers, taking Walker Buehler deep for a three-run blast in the second inning. The long ball was Marcano's first as a major leaguer in his 55th career at-bat. He has never been much of a power hitter, topping out at seven homers in the minors during the 2021 campaign.
