Reaches five times in win Edwards went 2-for-4 with an RBI, three runs, three walks and a stolen base in Thursday's extra-innings win over the Twins.

Impact Edwards walked to lead off the contest before coming around to score Miami's first run on a Jake Burger double. The infielder later added an RBI single in the fifth, a double in the ninth and a stolen base in the 13th after drawing his third walk of the contest. Edwards scored three times on the night, which marked a season high, as did his three free passes. He's now tallied multiple hits in three straight games and is up to 31 stolen bases on the campaign, with nine of those thefts coming in September.

Resting Saturday Edwards isn't part of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta.

Impact After making seven straight starts, Edwards will get the day off Saturday against Max Fried and Atlanta. Javier Sanoja will slot in at shortstop and bat sixth.

Reaches 30 steals Edwards went 1-for-5 with a pair of stolen bases in a loss to the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Impact Edwards singled to lead off the Marlins' half of the first inning and stole second base before advancing to third on an error. The shortstop nabbed another theft in the seventh after getting aboard on another Los Angeles error, though he was subsequently thrown out trying to steal third. Edwards has four steals over his past three games to push his total to 30 on the campaign, tied for 12th-most in the majors.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Settling back into everyday role Edwards will start at shortstop and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game against the Dodgers.

Impact Edwards was mysteriously out of the lineup for three consecutive games last Tuesday through Thursday, presumably due to an unreported injury. He still appeared off the bench in two of those contests and has since reclaimed his spot in the Marlins' everyday lineup, as he'll be picking up a fifth consecutive start Wednesday. If Edwards is still playing through an injury, it hasn't been evident on the basepaths, with the 25-year-old nabbing a pair of steals in his four games since rejoining the lineup.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Held out of lineup again Edwards is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals.

Impact It marks three games in a row that Edwards has been absent from Miami's lineup. He did receive two plate appearances off the bench in Wednesday's game versus the Pirates, so it seems as though Edwards is available. The switch hitter did return from a back injury earlier this month, so this appears to be a situation where the Marlins are just being cautious with their young infielder. Otto Lopez is at shortstop in Thursday's series opener.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out of lineup again Wednesday Edwards is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Pirates.

Impact It's the second consecutive day off for Edwards. He isn't dealing with any known injury, so this appears to be Edwards getting a mini break after posting just a .433 OPS in seven games since returning from the injured list. Otto Lopez is covering shortstop in Wednesday's series finale.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not in Tuesday's lineup Edwards is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

Impact The 25-year-old started the previous seven games after a brief stint on the injured list due to back soreness, and he posted a .207/.226/.207 slash line with no extra-base hits and three steals during that stretch. Javier Sanoja will take over at shortstop and the leadoff role.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Pilfers bag No. 25 Edwards went 0-for-2 with a walk, a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's rout of the Phillies.

Impact Even without collecting a hit, Edwards still made a contribution from the leadoff spot in a 10-1 win. The switch-hitting shortstop is up to 25 steals on the season in only 53 big-league games, including three in the last two contests, and he's slashing an impressive .325/.399/.401 with one homer, 19 RBI and 29 runs.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Swipes two bags in win Edwards went 2-for-5 with two runs scored and two stolen bases in Saturday's 9-5 win over the Phillies.

Impact The breakout shortstop made an impact once again for the Marlins from the leadoff spot. The steals were the first for Edwards since he returned from the IL on Sept. 3, and in 52 big-league games this season he's gone 24-for-26 on the basepaths while slashing .328/.402/.405 with one homers, 18 RBI and 28 runs.

Xavier Edwards' RBI single in 10th lifts Marlins to 4-3 win over Nationals

Xavier Edwards hit an RBI single in the 10th inning and the Miami Marlins beat the Washington Nationals 4-3 on Wednesday night

SEPTEMBER 5, 2024 • Associated Press

Back in action Tuesday Edwards (back) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and is starting at shortstop and batting leadoff Tuesday against the Nationals.

Impact The 25-year-old suffered the back injury Aug. 23 against the Cubs and is rejoining the Marlins after a minimum-length stay on the IL. Edwards has a .349/.428/.436 slash line with one homer, 22 steals, 17 RBI and 25 runs in 47 games this season and should serve as Miami's starting shortstop and leadoff man for the stretch run.

Impact Miami placed Edwards on the IL on Aug. 26 with mild back extensor soreness, but he looks poised to return in the minimum 10 days or close to it. Once reinstated, Edwards should reclaim an everyday role at shortstop while potentially displacing Connor Norby as the Marlins' primary leadoff hitter.

Placed on injured list The Marlins placed Edwards on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Saturday, due to lower back soreness.

Impact Edwards was forced to exit Friday's game against the Cubs due to lower-back discomfort. He underwent an MRI on Saturday, and while it came back negative, the injury appears severe enough to warrant an extended absence. Edwards has been doing some field work, and if he were to be on the IL for the minimum 10-day stint, he would be eligible to return Sept. 3, which would be the series opener against Washington. The 25-year-old is slashing .349/.428/.436 with 22 stolen bases, 25 runs scored, one home run and 17 RBI over 202 plate appearances this season. While Edwards is sidelined, Vidal Brujan will step in as the Marlins' primary shortstop.

AUGUST 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to go on IL The Marlins are expected to place Edwards (back) on the 10-day injured list prior to Monday's game against the Rockies, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Outfielder Griffin Conine is set to receive a call-up from Triple-A Jacksonville and will meet up with the Marlins in Colorado for the start of the club's four-game series with the Rockies, while Edwards will head to the IL to open up on a spot on the 26-man active roster. Edwards had missed the Marlins' past two games with lower-back discomfort, and though an MRI returned negative and he was able to do some work on the field Sunday, the club wants to give the young infielder more time to heal up from the injury. Edwards' placement on the IL will be retroactive to Saturday, and he should have a good chance at being ready to return when first eligible Sept. 3. Vidal Brujan is likely to step in as the Marlins' primary shortstop while Edwards is on the shelf.

AUGUST 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Remaining on bench Sunday Edwards (back) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Impact The 25-year-old will sit for the second straight game after he exited Friday's contest due to lower-back discomfort. Edwards had medical imaging on his back come back negative Saturday, so he should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener at Colorado. Vidal Brujan is taking over at shortstop Sunday for the Marlins.
