Crawford (groin) will be reevaluated upon his return from the bereavement list Friday, Andrew Baggarly of MLB Press Box reports.

Crawford didn't have time to get an MRI before leaving for a family funeral, so he'll get checked out once he returns. If he's forced to hit the disabled list, it will be retroactive to Tuesday. More should be known about his status come Friday.

Arcia went 2-for-3 with a double, a home run and three RBI during Wednesday's win over Cincinnati.

It was easily the best game of the season for the young shortstop, and the three RBI doubled Arcia's total to six for the year. His glove is going to keep him in the lineup, and Milwaukee is proving to be an admirable offense this year, so there is certainly low-end value. However, expecting significant improvement on Arcia's current .229/.260/.371 slash line will likely prove to be ill-advised.

Crawford (groin) was placed on the bereavement list Wednesday, the San Jose Mercury News' Andrew Baggarly reports.

He has to miss a minimum of three games and a maximum of seven, so he could be back this weekend against the Padres. This happens to coincide with him dealing with a groin injury, so ideally he will also have time to heal while he is attending to personal matters. Kelby Tomlinson was recalled to take his spot at shortstop in the short term.

Seager went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Giants.

The star shortstop's bat has been as advertised this season (.312/.386/.506), but he is also showing a little more speed than he has in the past. He has gone 2-for-2 in steal attempts through 21 games after going 3-for-6 in 156 games last season. It is unlikely that he will suddenly develop 20-steal speed, but if he can get in the 5-to-10 range, it would give his owners an unexpected -- albeit small -- boost in value.

Owings went 2-for-4 with three RBI and one run in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Padres.

Owings was caught stealing for the first time all season, but that won't diminish what was another excellent night for the versatile 25-year-old, who has been a standout performer through the Diamondbacks' first 22 games. The Padres won't be sad to bid adieu to Owings when they leave Arizona following Thursday's game, as he's already racked up four hits and seven RBI in the first two games of the series.

Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto said Tuesday that O'Malley (appendectomy) isn't close to returning to active duty, Bob Dutton of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

In addition to the appendectomy, O'Malley is also still recovering from a right shoulder issue, according to Dipoto. The utility man's absence has mostly gone unnoticed, as O'Malley's placement on the disabled list to begin the season allowed Taylor Motter to make the 25-man roster. Motter has been one of the club's more effective power bats, with 11 of his 14 hits going for extra bases.

Turner went 4-for-6 with a double, a triple, a home run, four runs scored and a career-high seven RBI in Tuesday's 15-12 win over the Rockies.

The homer was his first of the year while the cycle was the first of Turner's career, and the ninth in franchise history dating back to the Nationals' days as the Expos. The 23-year-old boosted his batting average 70 points in one night, which isn't unheard of during an April series in Coors Field, and is now slashing .289/.308/.526 through 10 games.

Crawford exited Tuesday's game against the Dodgers early after appearing to tweak his groin while running to first base, NBC Sports Bay Area's Alex Pavlovic reports.

Crawford exited the game after coming up a bit gimpy while running to first. Following his departure, he was able to run sprints on the side of the field so it appears that the injury was nothing overly serious. The shortstop was already planning to miss the next two games as he takes time off on the bereavement list, so he'll have time to heal up. Until further information becomes available, he'll be considered day-to-day.

Adrianza (oblique) has been transferred to Triple-A Rochester to continue his rehab assignment, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

The 27-year-old made it clear that he is ready for more advanced competition, going 6-for-15 with two doubles and a stolen base in his three-game stint with High-A Fort Myers. A .220/.292/.313 career hitter at the major-league level, he will be merely a bench option for Minnesota upon his eventual return.

Arcia is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Reds.

After committing a pair of errors in Monday's win (his first two of the season), Arcia will head to the bench as Hernan Perez takes over at shortstop.
