J.P. Crawford Placed on Injured List With Hand Contusion
Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford (hand) was placed on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to June 7) on Monday with a right-hand contusion, according to Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. Infielder Ryan Bliss has been recalled from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move. Crawford will be eligible to return from the IL next Tuesday, when the Mariners start their homestand. The 31-year-old veteran was hit by a pitch on his hand late last week and needs a little more rest. He should be ready to return when eligible next week. In the meantime, Colt Emerson will continue to fill in as the M's primary shortstop, with Patrick Wisdom picking up more playing time at the hot corner in Seattle. Crawford is only rostered in 14% of Yahoo leagues at this point because of his limited fantasy ceiling across all categories. The 10-year veteran goes to the shelf hitting just .228 (44-for-193) on the season with 10 home runs, 23 RBI, 31 runs scored, and one stolen base in 233 plate appearances across 55 games played.
