Crawford went 3-for-3 with a walk, two doubles, a triple, a run scored and three RBI in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Padres.

His two-run double in the sixth inning broke open a 1-1 tie and gave the Giants a lead they wouldn't relinquish, but Crawford was locked in all afternoon. The performance broke an 0-for-18 mini-slump over his prior five games, bumping the 31-year-old's slash line back up to a robust .313/.368/.498.

Adames went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two RBI against the Yankees on Saturday.

Adames took a Sonny Gray offering out to the opposite field in the seventh inning for his second career home run. He has experienced mixed results in his first 52 at-bats at the major- league level, as he currently has a 41.1 percent strikeout rate but also has three multi-hit games.

Anderson went 2-for-4 with a home run, a steal, two runs and three RBI in Saturday's loss to Oakland.

The homer, a three-run shot off Daniel Mengden in the first inning, was Anderson's 13th of the season, while the steal was his 15th of the year. He's on pace for 28 homers and 32 steals, giving him a shot at a 30-30 season. Production in those categories has been enough to make Anderson a fairly valuable fantasy shortstop despite a relatively low .239 batting average.

Bogaerts (finger) is not starting Saturday against the Mariners, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Bogaerts left Friday's game after spraining his left index finger while sliding into second base. He's considered day-to-day. Tzu-Wei Lin will start at shortstop in his place Saturday.

Rojas was scratched from Saturday's lineup due to a bruised left hand, Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas should be considered day-to-day ahead of Sunday's series finale while he recovers from this minor injury. Across 74 games this year, he's hitting .248/.311/.358 with seven home runs, 28 RBI and three stolen bases.

Gordon went 2-for-4 with two runs and a walk in a loss to the Red Sox on Friday.

Gordon has now hit safely in 10 straight games, a stretch that's boosted his average 19 points to .294. The veteran has five multi-hit efforts over that span, although he's logged just one extra-base hit, a double on June 19. Nevertheless, Gordon is serving as the disruptive presence at the top of the order the Mariners hoped for when they acquired him, and he's essentially made a seamless transition back to his old second-base role in the wake of Robinson Cano's hand injury and 80-game suspension.

Camargo is not in the lineup against Baltimore on Saturday.

Camargo will be stationed on the bench after going 2-for-6 with a double and one RBI during Friday's loss. In his absence, Ryan Flaherty will man the hot corner.

Rojas was scratched from the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies, Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald reports.

At this point, there has been no reason given for Rojas's removal, but the Marlins will likely clear things up within the next couple hours. In his place, Derek Dietrich entered the lineup in the outfield and Brian Anderson shifted to an infield role.

Adames went 2-for-4 with an RBI single in a win over the Yankees on Friday.

Adames opened the scoring on the night for the Rays with his third-inning bloop single on his way to just his second multi-hit game of the season. The rookie has been designated as the everyday shortstop moving forward, which should give him plenty of time to gain seasoning against big-league arms. Adames is hitting just. 222 this month.

Arcia is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against St. Louis.

With Brad Miller recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs, Arcia could be in line for a diminished role, especially if he continues to struggle at the dish. He's hitting just .201/.234/.259 with two home runs and 15 RBI in 60 games this year.
