Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Reaches 30 steals
Edwards went 1-for-5 with a pair of stolen bases in a loss to the Dodgers on Wednesday.
Edwards singled to lead off the Marlins' half of the first inning and stole second base before advancing to third on an error. The shortstop nabbed another theft in the seventh after getting aboard on another Los Angeles error, though he was subsequently thrown out trying to steal third. Edwards has four steals over his past three games to push his total to 30 on the campaign, tied for 12th-most in the majors.

Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Settling back into everyday role
Edwards will start at shortstop and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game against the Dodgers.
Edwards was mysteriously out of the lineup for three consecutive games last Tuesday through Thursday, presumably due to an unreported injury. He still appeared off the bench in two of those contests and has since reclaimed his spot in the Marlins' everyday lineup, as he'll be picking up a fifth consecutive start Wednesday. If Edwards is still playing through an injury, it hasn't been evident on the basepaths, with the 25-year-old nabbing a pair of steals in his four games since rejoining the lineup.

Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Held out of lineup again
Edwards is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals.
It marks three games in a row that Edwards has been absent from Miami's lineup. He did receive two plate appearances off the bench in Wednesday's game versus the Pirates, so it seems as though Edwards is available. The switch-hitter did return from a back injury earlier this month, so this appears to be a situation where the Marlins are just being cautious with their young infielder. Otto Lopez is at shortstop in Thursday's series opener.

Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Back in action Tuesday
Edwards (back) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and is starting at shortstop and batting leadoff Tuesday against the Nationals.

Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Aiming for return this week
Edwards (back) resumed full baseball activities last week and anticipates returning from the 10-day injured list at some point during the Marlins' six-game homestand that runs Tuesday through Sunday, MLB.com reports.
Miami placed Edwards on the IL on Aug. 26 with mild back extensor soreness, but he looks poised to return in the minimum 10 days or close to it. Once reinstated, Edwards should reclaim an everyday role at shortstop while potentially displacing Connor Norby as the Marlins' primary leadoff hitter.

Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Goes on IL with sore back
The Marlins placed Edwards on the 10-day injured list due to mild back extensor soreness.
Edwards missed the final two games of the Marlins' series against the Cubs over the weekend with the back issue, and though an MRI on Sunday returned negative, the team will err on the side of caution and deactivate him. Before landing on the IL, Edwards was able to take some swings and do some throwing on the field Sunday, so he could have a chance at returning from the IL when first eligible Sept. 3. Vidal Brujan is expected to serve as the Marlins' primary shortstop in place of Edwards, who had slashed .356/.432/.442 with 10 extra-base hits and 22 stolen bases since moving into a full-time role at the beginning of July.

Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Expected to go on IL
The Marlins are expected to place Edwards (back) on the 10-day injured list prior to Monday's game against the Rockies, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Outfielder Griffin Conine is set to receive a call-up from Triple-A Jacksonville and will meet up with the Marlins in Colorado for the start of the club's four-game series with the Rockies, while Edwards will head to the IL to open up on a spot on the 26-man active roster. Edwards had missed the Marlins' past two games with lower-back discomfort, and though an MRI returned negative and he was able to do some work on the field Sunday, the club wants to give the young infielder more time to heal up from the injury. Edwards' placement on the IL will be retroactive to Saturday, and he should have a good chance at being ready to return when first eligible Sept. 3. Vidal Brujan is likely to step in as the Marlins' primary shortstop while Edwards is on the shelf.

Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Remaining on bench Sunday
Edwards (back) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.
The 25-year-old will sit for the second straight game after he exited Friday's contest due to lower-back discomfort. Edwards had medical imaging on his back come back negative Saturday, and he took a step forward prior to Sunday's game by taking some swings and doing some throwing, per Noah Berger of ElExtraBase.com. He can be considered day-to-day heading into the Marlins' upcoming four-game series in Colorado that begins Monday.
