J.P. Crawford placed on IL by Seattle Mariners after hand contusion

Seattle Mariners have moved shortstop J. P.

Crawford to the 10‑day injured list due to a right‑hand contusion and recalled infielder Ryan Bliss from Triple‑A Tacoma ahead of the series opener against the Baltimore Orioles. Crawford had been a steady presence in the infield since the start of the season.

Bliss earned the call‑up after a strong showing in Triple‑A, where he posted a. 300 batting average in his last ten games.

The Mariners will debut the revised lineup on Monday night versus the Orioles. Seattle hopes Crawford’s return will bolster the defense later in the week.
