Story went 2-for-5 with a walkoff solo home run in Saturday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Brewers.

Story's 35th homer of the year came off Brewers reliever Matt Albers, completing the comeback win for the Rockies. Story has added 23 stolen bases, 85 RBI and 111 runs scored in 144 games this season. Unfortunately, he added three strikeouts in the contest -- the shortstop has posted a 26.5 strikeout percentage to offset some of his otherwise stellar year.

Crawford is not starting Saturday against the Dodgers.

Crawford has just a single hit in his last six games. Mauricio Dubon slides to shortstop in his absence, with Donovan Solano (calf) starting at second base.

Seager went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a victory over the Giants on Friday.

Seager sat out Thursday's game with a tight hamstring but was back in the lineup Friday, drilling a solo shot to right field in the second inning. The shortstop is ending the regular season on a high note with a .304/.337/.646 slash line, seven homers and 23 RBI in September.

Edman went 3-for-4 with a stolen base, a run scored and a walk in Friday's 8-2 loss to the Cubs.

Edman's display of speed came in the fifth inning, when he reached on an infield single and swiped second in short order. He later scored on a Yadier Molina single in the seventh. Edman has 11 homers and 15 steals to go with a .305/.348/.500 slash line, 33 RBI and 58 runs scored in 90 games.

Seager (hamstring) is starting at shortstop and batting fifth Friday against the Giants.

Seager left Wednesday's matchup due to left hamstring tightness, but he's been cleared to return to action for the final weekend of the regular season. He's currently in the midst of a 10-game hitting streak and is slashing .459/.487/.784 with two home runs and nine RBI over that stretch.

Crawford is not in Thursday's lineup against the Rockies.

Crawford will head to the bench for Thursday's series finale as the Giants stack righties against left-hander Kyle Freeland. Mauricio Dubon is covering shortstop in his place, with Cristhian Adames starting at second base.

Seager (hamstring) is expected to return to the lineup against the Giants on Friday, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Seager was removed from Wednesday's contest against San Diego as a precautionary measure after feeling tightness in his left hamstring. Manager Dave Roberts indicated after the game that he isn't worried about Seager's hamstring: He said that the shortstop will be held out Thursday but is likely to be back in the lineup for the opener of a three-game series that begins Friday. The Dodgers have no motivation to rush Seager back after having already clinched home-field advantage through the NLCS, so his availability for Friday suggests that the issue is indeed minor.

Seager was removed from Wednesday's game against the Padres with left hamstring tightness, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

The Dodgers labeled the 25-year-old's exit as precautionary, but it remains a concerning development since he missed a month earlier in the season with a strain to the same hamstring. The team figures to remain cautious with Seager over the final four games of the regular season with home-field advantage already locked up.

Camargo (lower leg) is doubtful for the NLDS, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Camargo has been sidelined since Sept. 11 with a fractured right shin. The utility man hasn't progressed as quickly as he hoped and still can't put full weight on his leg, making it unlikely that he'll be ready to return in time for the first round of the playoffs, which begins next week.

Story is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Giants.

Story will head to the bench after starting the past 10 games, going 12-for-38 (.316) with four home runs and a steal over that stretch. Garrett Hampson is starting at shortstop and hitting leadoff in his place.
