Correa went 2-for-5 with two home runs, four RBI and a walk in Friday's 13-1 win over Toronto.

The shortstop extended Houston's lead to 3-0 with a solo shot in the fifth inning. He added a three-run blast in the eighth to finish the scoring. Correa is now slashing .277/.364/.485 with 10 homers, 32 RBI and 37 runs scored across 236 plate appearances. He's produced multiple hits in four of his last eight games.

DeJong (ribs) will start a rehab assignment at Triple-A Nashville Saturday and hopes to rejoin the Cardinals at some point during their series with the Cubs next week, Jim Hayes of Bally Sports Midwest reports.

DeJong was placed on the 10-day injured list May 14 after suffering a non-displaced rib fracture. The Cardinals were hoping to have the shortstop back by the end of May, but he ultimately has been sidelined up to this point. He'll now head to Memphis to rehab, with next weekend's series against Chicago as his target for a return.

Story (elbow) threw on the field Friday and remains on track to return from the injured list Tuesday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Story is set to miss one day more than the minimum due to right elbow inflammation, as the Rockies don't play Monday, the first day he'd be eligible to return. Brendan Rodgers has handled shortstop in his absence, but Story should return to his everyday role once healthy.

The Brewers recalled Reyes from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Reyes faired decently in his first stint with Milwaukee this season, slashing .270/.270/.324 across 37 plate appearances. With Kolten Wong (oblique) landing on the 10-day injured list Friday, Reyes will rejoin the big club ahead of the game against Arizona.

Mondesi (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Twins.

Mondesi hasn't played since leaving Monday's game against the Pirates with a hamstring issue. Per Alec Lewis of The Athletic, whether Mondesi is available off the bench Friday will depend on how he fares in pregame activities. Nicky Lopez will get the start at shortstop and bat ninth against Minnesota.

Crawford went 3-for-5 with an RBI ground-rule double and another two-bagger in a win over the Angels on Thursday.

Crawford operated out of the leadoff spot for the sixth time this season with plenty of success, posting his second multi-hit effort in the last three games. The veteran shortstop's .254/.313/.340 slash line has plenty of room for improvement; however, Crawford sports a modest 17.5 percent strikeout rate and impressive 22.4 percent line-drive rate as well, while his .315 and .324 averages with men on base and men in scoring position, respectively, have helped lead to 17 RBI despite his often unfavorable slotting in the order.

Edman went 2-for-5 with a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Reds.

Edman singled and stole second in the first inning Thursday. He scored on a Tyler O'Neill single. The 26-year-old is slashing .275/.328/.394 with four home runs, 15 RBI and 31 runs in 256 plate appearances. He is tied for fourth in all of baseball with 11 steals.

Crawford went 2-for-3 with a home run, four RBI, two runs scored and a walk in Thursday's win over the Cubs.

Crawford was the undisputed star for the Giants on Thursday, as he delivered an RBI single in the bottom of the second inning before socking his 12th long ball of the season against Rex Brothers in the fifth. The shortstop hadn't homered since May 20, and he hadn't recorded multiple RBI in a game since May 25.

Bogaerts went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Thursday's 5-1 win over Houston.

Bogaerts plated two with a seventh-inning double, which also snapped an 0-for-24 skid, the longest stretch of futility since his rookie season in 2014. Despite the slump, the shortstop maintains a more-than-respectable .312 average and .911 OPS over 53 games (220 plate appearances).

Anderson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 4-1 victory over Detroit.

Anderson's eighth-inning home run was the fourth and final solo shot of the day for the White Sox. It was his sixth homer of the season and first in 17 games. After experiencing an allergy-induced headache that forced him to miss a game earlier this week, Anderson has recorded multiple hits in the two games since.
