Story went 2-for-3 with two doubles, two walks, two RBI, two stolen bases and three runs scored in Wednesday's 8-7 win over San Diego.

Story did a little bit of almost everything in an impressive performance at the plate. The star shortstop went 4-for-9 with three doubles, three RBI, five runs scored and a pair of steals in the three-game series versus San Diego. He's slashing .251/.332/.415 with five home runs, 11 steals, 26 RBI and 32 runs scored across 235 plate appearances overall.

Mondesi (hamstring) went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-5 loss to Detroit.

The shortstop missed two weeks with a hamstring strain. In limited time this year, Mondesi has three homers, six RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base. The speedster will likely take on an everyday role going forward if he can stay healthy, which will leave Nicky Lopez and Hanser Alberto as bench options.

Ahmed is not starting Wednesday's game against the Giants.

The day off comes at a good time for Ahmed, who's hitless in three consecutive games and in six of his last eight. He has also failed to draw a walk in that stretch. Josh Rojas gets the start at shortstop Wednesday.

Seager (hand) is expected to hit in Arizona this weekend and begin his rehab assignment late next week, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

This will mark a notable step in Seager's quicker-than-expected recovery from a fractured right hand, which he suffered when getting hit by a pitch May 15. Considering the length of his absence, the shortstop figures to require multiple rehab games before being activated, so a late-June return remains realistic.

Anderson went 3-for-4 with a stolen base Tuesday in the White Sox's 3-0 win over the Rays.

Anderson delivered his third multi-hit game in a row, with the 27-year-old going 8-for-13 with a pair of doubles, four runs and two RBI over that stretch. Thanks to the hot streak, Anderson has lifted his season-long batting average from .291 to .311. He'll look to keep the momentum going in Wednesday's series finale; he'll bat leadoff and start at shortstop.

Adames isn't starting Wednesday's game against Cincinnati.

Adames will get a breather after he went 0-for-10 with a run, a stolen base and four strikeouts across the last three games. Daniel Robertson will start at shortstop and bat eighth.

Cardinals manager Mike Shildt said Edman (torso) won't be included in the lineup for Wednesday's series finale with the Marlins, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

St. Louis will withhold Edman from the starting nine for the second day in a row after he was previously scratched ahead of Tuesday's 2-1 win when he experienced torso tightness. Shildt didn't indicate whether Edman would be available off the bench, so the 26-year-old's status is somewhat hazy heading into the Cardinals' four-game series in Atlanta that begins Thursday.

Correa went 2-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Tuesday's 6-3 extra-inning win over the Rangers.

With the Astros trailing 2-1 in the ninth inning and down to their final strike, Correa drove a Josh Sborz slider over the fence in right field to send the game to extras. The shortstop is slashing .348/.444/.674 through 11 games in June with four of his 12 homers on the season.

Bichette went 2-for-3 with a home run, a walk and three RBI during Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Yankees.

Bichette clubbed a solo homer during the third inning and brought home two runs on a single during the following frame, but Toronto's offense was otherwise fairly quiet. The 23-year-old has a .284/.332/.500 slash line with 14 home runs, 14 doubles, nine stolen bases, 42 RBI and 57 runs through 65 games this season. He's also homered three times in his last four games.

Mondesi (hamstring) will start at shortstop and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against Detroit, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Mondesi was reinstated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tigers, but he didn't appear in the 4-3 loss. Prior to his second stint on the injured list, the 25-year-old hit .360 with two home runs, five RBI and a stolen base across seven games.
