Anderson (hamstring) isn't starting Monday's game against the Mariners.

Anderson is considered day-to-day after he left Sunday's loss to the Angels with left hamstring tightness. Leury Garcia will take over as the starting shortstop for Monday's series opener against Seattle, batting seventh.

Edman is hitting just .167 (2-for-12) with two walks and one run over his first three games while operating out of the leadoff spot.

Edman was outstanding this spring no matter where he slotted into the order, slashing .378/.404/.422 across 47 plate appearances. However, the 25-year-old has gotten off to a very slow start now that the games have started to count, but Edman has yet to strike out over 14 plate appearances and has been a bit unlucky early with a .167 BABIP.

The White Sox are listing Anderson as day-to-day after he departed Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Angels with left hamstring tightness.

Anderson went hitless in his lone at-bat before being pulled with the injury in the bottom of the first inning in favor of Leury Garcia. Per Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times, manager Tony La Russa said after the game that he doesn't believe that Anderson's hamstring pull is serious, but even if he avoids a trip to the injured list, the shortstop would seem unlikely to be available for Monday's series opener versus the Mariners.

Correa batted sixth and went 1-for-4 in Sunday's 9-2 win over the Athletics.

Correa opened the season as the fifth-place hitter but was dropped to sixth Sunday. That seems to run counter to expectations, as Houston was without two-hole hitter Michael Brantley (wrist). Instead, both Yordan Alvarez and Yuli Gurriel jumped above Correa.

Owings went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Dodgers.

With the Rockies facing another southpaw Sunday, Owings was back in the lineup at second base. He was able to do some damage out of the leadoff position, reaching base multiple times and scoring once. If Owings can consistently find ways to get on base, he may get more opportunities to face right-handed pitchers.

Anderson left Sunday's game against the Angels with a tight hamstring but isn't expected to miss much time, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Anderson exited after hurting himself while trying to beat out a grounder, but he seems to have avoided a serious injury. Leury Garcia replaced him at shortstop and could start there for a game or two, but Anderson isn't expected to require a trip to the injured list.

Anderson exited Sunday's game against the Angels after suffering a lower-body injury while trying to beat out a groundball in his first at-bat.

He was bent over grimacing after getting thrown out at first base with what looked like a pulled hamstring or quad. Leury Garcia replaced him at shortstop.

Wendle went 2-for-4 with an RBI single, a double and a run in a loss to the Marlins on Saturday.

The versatile infielder enjoyed a resurgence at the plate during the truncated 2020 season after a dismal and injury-riddled 2019, and early in the new campaign, Wendle seems ready to take things up yet another notch at the plate. Saturday's first multi-hit effort of the season followed a game-winning three-run home run Friday in his 2021 debut.

Seager is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against Rockies, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Manager Dave Roberts said he wanted to get his regulars a day off early in the season. With the team traveling to Oakland for a series beginning Monday, stars Seager and Cody Bellinger will get a breather. Seager, who already has eight hits this season, will be replaced at shortstop by Gavin Lux with Zach McKinstry taking over at second base.

Perdomo will start at shortstop and bat eighth Sunday against the Padres.

After making his debut off the bench Saturday, Perdomo will enter the starting lineup for the first time as a major leaguer to face right-hander Chris Paddack. The expectation is that Josh Rojas will get the majority of the starts at shortstop while Nick Ahmed (knee) is sidelined, but Perdomo is a top prospect in the organization and his running ability makes him an interesting streamer in leagues that allow daily roster moves.
