Mariners Place J.P. Crawford on 10-Day Injured List

Left wrist inflammation will cost Crawford a couple of weeks and has led the club to recall infielder Leo Rivas from Triple-A.

Overview

  • The Mariners put J.P. Crawford on the 10-day injured list after he injured his left wrist while swinging, received an injection and was told to avoid baseball activity for three to five days as the club expects a recovery measured in a couple of weeks.
  • The roster move brought up infielder Leo Rivas from Triple-A Tacoma, a defensive, switch-hitting depth option who has struggled at the plate in the majors this season.
  • Weston Wilson is slated to start at third base immediately in Crawford’s absence to preserve infield alignment and give the club a right-handed option in the lineup.
  • Utility man Brendan Donovan is expected to rejoin the active roster after attending the birth of his child, and several injured pitchers are on throwing programs that could allow returns between mid-August and early September.
  • This marks Crawford’s third injured-list stint this year and removes one of the team’s most reliable on-base players, which could press Seattle to rely on defensive depth and monitor his timeline closely for lineup and roster planning.
