Edman went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Brewers.

This was Edman's fourth multi-hit effort in his last six games. He's hitting .379 (11-for-29) with four doubles, three RBI, a stolen base and seven runs scored in that productive span. The 27-year-old is up to a .288/.373/.448 slash line with four homers, 21 RBI, 34 runs scored and 10 stolen bases in 43 games. He'll hit leadoff the vast majority of the time, though he'll often play shortstop against right-handed pitchers to allow prospect Nolan Gorman to log time at second base.

Anderson went 3-for-5 with a run scored Thursday against Boston.

Anderson has hit .419 across his last 18 starts, highlighted by 11 multi-hit performances. In that span, he has also chipped in 10 RBI, 10 runs scored and four stolen bases. Anderson has had an exceptional start to the season, maintaining a .363/.401/.516 slash line across 167 plate appearances.

Story went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored, four RBI, a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's 16-7 win over the White Sox.

Story singled in a run in the first inning off Dallas Keuchel and got to the veteran hurler for a three-run blast to left field in the second. This was Story's third multi-hit game over his past seven contests, upping his batting average to .232 on the season. Over the weeklong hot streak, he is slashing .345/.394/1.069 with seven homers, 21 RBI and two stolen bases.

Marcano will be recalled prior to the Pirates' weekend series at San Diego, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Marcano has maintained an excellent .312/.411/.495 line across 113 plate appearances with Double-A Altoona on the season. While he may not have a stable spot in the lineup, he's likely to pick up consistent playing time thanks to his ability to slot in at the corner outfield positions as well as both second and third base. Yoshi Tsutsugo (undisclosed) was placed on the injured list in the corresponding move.

Wendle (hamstring) was activated from the 10-day injured list Thursday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Wendle has been on the injured list since May 13 but is ready to return after logging seven at-bats during a rehab stint. He should find regular at-bats with both Jon Berti (illness) and Jazz Chisholm (hamstring) sidelined in the short term, though a timeshare at third base with Brian Anderson is most likely moving forward. Prior to going down, Wendle had maintained a .304/.368/.456 line with two home runs, 10 RBI and 12 runs scored across 87 plate appearances.

Arcia was added to the lineup for Thursday's game against the Phillies.

For a second straight game, Arcia is a late addition to Atlanta's lineup. He'll start in left field and bat eighth after Marcell Ozuna (abdomen) was removed from Thursday's lineup. Arcia went 2-for-3 with two doubles, a run, an RBI and a walk in Wednesday's win over Philadelphia.

Camargo isn't starting Thursday against Atlanta.

After starting in two straight games to begin the week, Camargo will be on the bench for a second consecutive matchup while Bryson Stott starts at shortstop and bats ninth. Camargo has gone 4-for-13 with a run, two walks and five strikeouts over his last five games.

Chang was designated for assignment by the Guardians on Thursday.

Chang was reinstated from the 10-day injured list May 13, but he appeared in just one game since then. The 26-year-old will now lose his spot on the 40-man roster to make room for Oscar Gonzalez, whose contract was selected by Cleveland on Thursday. Chang played in 89 games for the Guardians last year, and he'll likely report to Triple-A Columbus if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Williams was traded from the Giants to the Marlins in exchange for Hayden Cantrelle on Thursday.

Williams was designated for assignment by San Francisco last weekend, and he'll now attempt to carve out a role with a new organization. The 25-year-old has appeared in 66 games between the Phillies and Giants over the last two years, and he's hit .245 with a homer, five doubles, nine runs and nine RBI. Williams will likely report to Triple-A Jacksonville following Thursday's trade.

Amaya is hitting .315/.420/.653 with nine homers, two steals and a 24:18 BB:K for Double-A Tulsa.

He's also averaging nearly a run per game -- 31 in 34 contests. The 23-year-old didn't come into the season with a reputation as a power hitter -- he socked just 12 homers with a .343 slugging percentage in 113 Double-A games last year -- but he's certainly muscled up this season. Amaya has always been considered an excellent defender, which should help punch his ticket to the big leagues as soon as next season, though his long-term outlook will hinge on whether he can carry this season's impressive power gains forward. At worst, he's an excellent utility infielder, but if he can keep hitting like this, he's got chance to be considerably more than that.
