Mariners Put J.P. Crawford on 10-Day IL, Triggering Infield Shuffle

Seattle placed shortstop J.P. Crawford on the 10-day injured list with a right-hand contusion after a hit-by-pitch, recalling Ryan Bliss from Triple-A. Crawford had been a productive contributor (.258/.366/.500 with nine homers since late April) and may shift to third as Colt Emerson handles short for at least a week. With Brendan Donovan sidelined by a groin strain, third-base duties will fall to Patrick Wisdom and Bliss for now, while Seattle hopes a healthy roster can keep its strong lineup intact.
