Set to play second base upon return Edwards (back) will start at second base in his first rehab game with Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday and is expected to serve as the Marlins' primary option at the keystone once...

Impact Edwards broke into the big leagues as a second baseman in 2023 but has primarily played shortstop since the beginning of the 2024 season. While the Marlins don't seem opposed to using Edwards at shortstop moving forward, Otto Lopez has fared well defensively at the position since returning to action May 18 following an IL stint of his own, so Edwards will prepare for a full-time role at second base with Miami during his rehab assignment. Edwards is expected to need only a couple games with Jacksonville before potentially being activated as soon as Friday.

Impact The 25-year-old has been sidelined by a back strain since May 14 and will need a couple games in the minors to get back up to speed before being activated by Miami.

Impact Edwards was placed on the 10-day injured list May 18 due to a left mid-back strain and has since been given the green light to resume baseball activities. The club has yet to provide a firm timeline for the 25-year-old, and it remains to be seen whether a rehab assignment will be required before activating Edwards from the IL.

MAY 18, 2025 • MLB.COM

Placed on IL Miami moved Edwards to the 10-day injured list Sunday, retroactive to May 15, due to a left mid-back strain.

Impact Edwards sat out both Friday and Saturday due to the back issue, and he's now going to need to rest for at least eight more days. In positive news for the Marlins, the team got another starting infielder back, as Otto Lopez (ankle) was activated from the 10-day IL in a corresponding move. While Edwards is sidelined, Javier Sanoja will likely handle shortstop duties, as he is Sunday versus Tampa Bay.
