Edwards went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's loss to the Astros.

Batting sixth with right-hander Jake Bloss on the mound for Houston, Edwards' speed was on full display -- he advanced on two wild pitches in the second inning before coming home with Miami's second run, and he then singled and stole his first bag of 2024 in the sixth. Edwards had 37 steals in 41 attempts between Triple-A and the majors last year, so if he keeps getting on base, his wheels could translate into consistent fantasy value. The 24-year-old infielder has hit safely in 10 of the last 11 games, slashing .333/.395/.410 over that stretch, and he seems likely to remain the Marlins' starting shortstop even when Otto Lopez (back) has returned from the IL.

Crawford went 3-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and three runs scored in Thursday's win over the Angels.

Crawford hit a ground rule double in his first at-bat to lead off the contest before coming around to score Seattle's first run on a Josh Rojas single. The shortstop then went on to drive in runs in two of his next three trips to the plate, starting with a two-run shot in the fourth as the Mariners shot out to an 11-0 lead. It was Crawford's eighth long ball of the season and his first since June 18 against Cleveland. He's still batting just .194 (7-for-36) in July with three extra-base hits, six RBI and five runs scored.

Hamilton went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and a caught stealing in Thursday's 7-0 win over Oakland.

Hamilton doubled and scored in the first inning then singled and was caught stealing an inning later. It was the second time this season Hamilton has been thrown out on a steal attempt, but he's been successful 23 times. The infielder, whose hot bat from late May and early June had cooled recently, has multiple hits in two of the last three games.

Swanson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Thursday's 8-0 win over the Orioles.

The home run was Swanson's ninth of the season and first since June 19. Since then, the shortstop has batted just .191 across 19 games. For the season, Swanson is hitting .209, which is a decent step back from his career average of .250. While it's been a disappointing first half, the 30-year-old is talented enough to pick things up in a hurry, so fantasy managers should try to remain patient.

Turner went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base during Thursday's 5-1 win over the Dodgers.

Turner has been red-hot in July, with Thursday's solo homer off Anthony Banda being the shortstop's sixth of the month. Turner also added his 12th pilfer of 2024, swiping second base after being walked in the eighth inning. The 31-year-old is slashing .348/.393/.529 with nine home runs across 244 plate appearances.

Walls isn't in the Rays' lineup Thursday versus the Yankees, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

After going 2-for-3 during Wednesday's loss, Walls will take a seat for Thursday's series finale against Nestor Cortes. Jose Caballero will get the nod to start at shortstop instead.

Bichette, who is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Giants, was diagnosed with a fascia strain in his right calf, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

The 26-year-old suffered the injury during Wednesday's contest and is currently considered day-to-day. Bichette dealt with a strain in the same calf last month that resulted in a short stay on the injured list, though it's unclear if an IL move will be necessary this time around. The Blue Jays could add a player to the taxi squad in order to provide some potential depth at shortstop for the immediate future.

Bichette (calf) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Giants.

Bichette made an early exit from Wednesday's 10-6 win after experiencing soreness in his right calf while he was playing the field during a pickoff attempt. Though the Blue Jays appear to be viewing Bichette as day-to-day for now, he spent time on the injured list in June with a strain of the same calf. Leo Jimenez will fill in for Bichette at shortstop Thursday.

Cruz (hamstring) will start at shortstop and bat third Thursday against the Brewers.

Cruz missed two games after making an early exit from Monday's contest due to hamstring soreness, but the issue appears to have subsided Thursday. Since the beginning of July, the 25-year-old has gone 8-for-24 with two homers and five RBI over seven games.

Schuemann went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and two runs in a win over the Red Sox on Wednesday.

Schuemann made plenty of noise out of the bottom of the order, generating one of two multi-hit efforts for the Athletics on the night while recording a steal for the second straight game. The rookie shortstop also has an eight-game on-base streak, and he's now posted multi-hit tallies twice in the last four contests.
