McKinstry went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Saturday's 13-4 win against the White Sox.

McKinstry went deep off John Brebbia in the ninth inning, his first home run since July 7. McKinstry in the middle of a five-game hitting streak with five RBI and two stolen bases in that stretch. The 29-year-old utility man sees sporadic playing time and carries a paltry .603 OPS through 90 games this season.

De La Cruz went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI, three runs and a stolen base in Saturday's 10-2 win over the Pirates.

De La Cruz filled the stat sheet once again with a pair of RBI, three runs and his 61st stolen base of the season. De La Cruz's RBI double in the sixth was his 59th extra-base hit this season, one away from making him just the 10th player since 1901 with a season of 60 extra-base hits and 60 stolen bases. The 22-year-old is in the midst of another strong week with a home run, five RBI, seven runs and two stolen bases in six games.

Crawford (finger) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday, Tacoma broadcaster Mike Curto reports.

Crawford took batting practice with the Mariners on Friday and was sent out on a rehab assignment afterward. The shortstop has been on the shelf since July 24 with a hairline fracture of his right pinky finger and it's unclear how many rehab outings he'll require before being activated.

Walls is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Dodgers.

Walls had started six of the Rays' last seven games, but he'll give way to Jose Caballero at shortstop Saturday. Walls is 11-for-48 (.229) with five runs, six stolen bases and more walks (six) than strikeouts (four) in August.

Imaging on Edwards' lower back came back negative Saturday, and he's considered day-to-day, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Edwards was removed from Friday's game against the Cubs due to a lower-back injury he sustained while attempting to steal a base. Considering Saturday's testing didn't reveal any significant injury, Edwards shouldn't miss more than a few games -- if he misses time at all. The Marlins close out a home series against the Cubs on Sunday before heading out on a seven-game road trip.

McCoy is batting ninth and playing shortstop Saturday against the Mets.

Saturday's contest will be McCoy's third consecutive start at shortstop, as he's seemingly supplanted Tyler Wade as the Padres' replacement for Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder). Since being called up Wednesday, McCoy is 3-for-8 with two runs and an RBI.

Sweeney isn't in the Tigers' lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox.

With lefty Ky Bush set to toe the slab for Chicago, the lefty-hitting Sweeney will step out of the starting nine Saturday. While he rests, Ryan Kreidler will start at shortstop and bat ninth.

Witt went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Friday's 7-4 win over the Phillies.

Witt had a quiet game by his standards, but he was able to record his first steal since Aug. 2. He also extended his current hitting streak to 11 games, a span in which he's batting .372 (16-for-43) with three home runs, eight RBI and 11 runs scored. He's now at a .350/.400/.614 slash line with 26 steals, 25 homers, 92 RBI, 110 runs scored, 38 doubles and 11 triples through 128 contests. He's already set career highs in multiple areas, and he's got a good chance of producing personal bests in everything but steals by the end of the campaign.

Schneemann went 2-for-3 with one RBI and one stolen base in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Rangers.

Schneemann has been a part-time player over the last couple of weeks, but he's posted multiple hits in his last two games. Prior to that, he went just 5-for-26 over a 13-game stretch. The utility man is slashing .226/.314/.390 with four home runs, three steals, 19 RBI and 14 runs scored over 169 plate appearances this year. A left-handed hitter, Schneemann is most likely to play versus right-handed pitchers, but he's seeing less work than a regular strong-side platoon player would.

Crawford (finger) took part in batting practice before Friday's game against the Giants, MLB.com reports.

Crawford has been progressively ramping up his activity level in recent days, as he began taking swings against a pitching machine Wednesday. The veteran shortstop noted Friday that he could be ready to begin a rehab assignment at a minor-league affiliate as soon as Sunday or Monday.
