J.P. Crawford Sitting Out Against Twins
1 year agoSeattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford (knee) had a planned day of rest coming on Wednesday against the Minnesota Twins before he was hit in the knee by a pitch on Tuesday night. With Crawford resting, Dylan Moore will get the nod at shortstop and bat eighth against Twins right-hander Joe Ryan. It remains to be seen if Crawford's knee injury is something that will keep him out beyond Wednesday, but the good news is he'll have an extra day to heal up with a scheduled off day coming on Thursday before the series opener on Friday against the Arizona Diamondbacks. For now, consider the 28-year-old to be day-to-day. Crawford has been hot this month, hitting .333 (27-for-81) with two homers, nine doubles, seven RBI and 11 runs scored in 21 games played.
