Swanson was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a right foot contusion.

The injury was previously reported to be heel soreness, but the club is labeling it as a bruised foot. It sounds like a situation where Swanson just needs some time to rest and recover. Johan Camargo should slot in as the everyday shortstop in the short term.

Wendle is not in Saturday's lineup against the Blue Jays.

Mike Brosseau gets the start at the keystone with lefty Ryan Borucki starting for Toronto. While Wendle has seen some starts against lefties recently, this is a quasi platoon, as the righty-hitting Brosseau has shown an ability to mash lefties in the upper levels of the minors.

Lindor went 3-for-5 with a triple, a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 8-3 win over the Royals.

The shortstop is on a tear, having hit safely in eight straight games and 11 of the last 12 with a .364/.386/.655 slash line, three homers, three steals, nine runs and 10 RBI over those dozen contests. Lindor's .352 OBP and .519 SLG so far this season exactly match his performance from 2018, but the 25-year-old has added 22 points to his batting average, hitting .299 with 17 home runs and 16 steals through 84 games.

Correa went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Friday's loss to the Cardinals.

Correa was activated off the 60-day injured list Friday and played for the first time since May 26. Prior to suffering a rib injury, Correa was putting up strong numbers (.907 OPS, 11 home runs) in 50 games, indicating he was back on track after a disappointing and injury-impacted 2018.

Anderson (ankle) played nine innings at shortstop Friday for Triple-A Charlotte. He went 0-for-5 and committed an error.

Anderson played for a third straight day and, more significantly, played nine innings in the field. There's a possibility Anderson will return to Chicago before the end of the White Sox's homestand, which extends through Aug. 1.

Mondesi (shoulder) has resumed light workouts and light throwing, Jeffrey Flanagan of MLB.com reports.

The pain and inflammation in Mondesi's shoulder has started to subside, allowing the shortstop to resume limited baseball activities. He's set to be reevaluated early next week (Monday or Tuesday), at which point a timetable for his return will hopefully come into focus. Look for Humberto Arteaga and Nicky Lopez to continue filling in at shortstop in the meantime.

Swanson (heel) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Phillies.

Swanson was scratched from Wednesday's lineup due to heel soreness and will require at least one more day to rest up. Johan Camargo will start at shortstop at bat seventh Friday in his absence.

Correa (rib) was activated from the 60-day injured list Friday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports. He is starting at shortstop and hitting fifth against the Cardinals, per Rome.

As expected, Correa will rejoin the Astros ahead of Friday's series opener after spending the past two months on the shelf with a cracked rib. The shortstop completed a six-game rehab stint before being activated, slashing .333/.417/.476 with three doubles in those contests. Correa will look to pick up where he left off prior to the injury, as he compiled a .295/.360/.547 triple slash with 11 homers in 50 games before landing on the shelf. Tony Kemp was designated for assignment to free up a roster spot for Correa.

Edman is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Astros.

Edman started seven of the last eight games but will take a seat Friday after posting a .744 OPS in that stretch. Yairo Munoz will start at the hot corner and bat leadoff in his stead.

Story is out of the lineup for Friday's game at Cincinnati.

Story started all 19 previous games in July and has an .871 OPS with five home runs in 76 at-bats, but he'll receive a breather for Friday's series opener. Garrett Hampson will start at shortstop and bat seventh in his absence.
