Crawford (finger) was able to take infield practice with his one capable hand before Friday's game against the Phillies, MLB.com reports.

Crawford donned a protective cast on his injured hand and was able to get through the session without any issue. He's slated for an X-ray on Monday, which will be exactly two weeks since he suffered a fractured pinkie finger against the Angels. Crawford won't begin any sort of progression before Aug. 19, and Mariners general manager Justin Hollander labeled that timeline as "aggressive" and the earliest possible date the veteran shortstop could take that step.

Wilson (hamstring) began a light baseball progression earlier in the week that includes hitting off a tee, MLB.com reports.

The promising rookie is also playing catch up to 90 feet and doing some light jogging. Wilson remains without a timetable for return, although these latest developments spark some optimism he can be ready for activation at some point before the end of August, likely following a brief rehab assignment.

Edwards went 2-for-4 with a run scored and two stolen bases in Friday's loss to Atlanta.

The switch hitter continues to be a terror on the basepaths, going 8-for-8 on steal attempts over the last 11 games. Edwards is also batting an absurd .447 (17-for-38) during that stretch with eight runs, eight RBI and a 7:8 BB:K, and he's cementing his spot as the Marlins' shortstop, and leadoff hitter, of the present and future.

Volpe went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double in Friday's loss to Toronto.

Volpe took Kevin Gausman deep in the fifth inning for his 10th homer of the season. The shortstop had two additional knocks in the loss, giving him his third multi-hit performance over his past four contests. Volpe has hit safely in 13 of his past 14 games and is slashing .356/.367/.644 with four home runs, five doubles, nine RBI, 10 runs and four thefts over that span.

Cruz went 5-for-5 with a double, two runs scored, two RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 9-8 loss to the Diamondbacks.

The Pirates as a team managed only 13 hits in total, but Cruz nearly single-handedly kept them in the game with the first five-hit performance of his young career. The 25-year-old shortstop is slashing .311/.357/.589 over 23 games since the beginning of July with five homers, four steals, 15 runs and 20 RBI despite a 32.7 percent strikeout rate during that stretch.

Fitzgerald went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and two RBI in Friday's win over the Reds.

Fitzgerald knocked an RBI double in the second inning and added an insurance run with a solo blast in the seventh. He was stuck in a small 3-for-20 skid before Friday's big performance. Over the last 14 games, he's gone 19-for-52 (.365) with 13 extra-base knocks, including nine homers. The hot stretch has pushed Fitzgerald's season slash line to .313/.371/.633 through 140 plate appearances.

Witt went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 9-2 win over the Tigers.

Witt was on the front end of a double steal in the seventh inning, and he scored on a wild pitch later in the frame. While this wasn't his best game recently, he extended his hitting streak to 15 games, a span in which he's gone 30-for-59 (.508) with four home runs and three steals. The superstar shortstop is up to 25 thefts while adding 20 homers, 78 RBI, 94 runs scored and a .348/.396/.600 slash line through 111 contests.

Seager went 3-for-3 with two homers, three runs scored and three RBI in Friday's 11-6 loss to Boston.

The two-time World Series MVP opened the contest's scoring when he laced a 371-foot solo shot off Kutter Crawford in the first inning. Seager then cracked another solo homer -- this one traveling 410 feet -- off Crawford in his next plate appearance in the third. The Texas shortstop has found a groove since the All-Star break, hitting .333 (17-for-51) with three homers, two doubles, nine runs scored and five RBI over 14 games.

Arcia went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Friday's win against the Marlins.

The Atlanta shortstop opened the scoring for his team when he slugged a 399-foot solo shot off Valente Bellozo in the fifth inning. Arcia later added another RBI on a single in the eighth to stretch the Atlanta lead to 5-3. The 29-year-old has been hot since the All-Star break, hitting .356 (16-for-45) with four homers, five runs scored and eight RBI across 14 games. He is currently riding a 13-game hit streak.

Sogard is starting at second base and batting eighth against the Rangers on Friday.

Sogard will make his big-league debut Friday while David Hamilton retreats to the dugout. Sogard was promoted from Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday, where he slashed .279/.382/.439 with 10 steals, 12 home runs and 54 RBI across 406 plate appearances. The 26-year-old will get his first taste of the majors against Rangers right-hander Jose Urena.
