Xavier Edwards, Miami Marlins, Day-to-Day Due to Back Tightness
Xavier Edwards of the Miami Marlins is day-to-day with back tightness and may not play in the upcoming game.
What It Means
Xavier Edwards has been a consistent presence for the Miami Marlins, starting in all 42 games this season. He holds a batting average of .263 with 45 hits in 171 at-bats. In the upcoming game against the Tampa Bay Rays, the Marlins may have to rely on backup shortstops like Javier Sanoja or Ronny Simon if Edwards is unable to play.
This isn't the first time Edwards has faced injury concerns this season. He previously dealt with knee soreness in April, which kept him day-to-day. With the Marlins playing at home in loanDepot Park, Edwards' home stats show a .272 average, making his potential absence notable for the team.
