Back in action Sunday Crawford (lower body) will start at shortstop and bat cleanup Sunday against the Nationals.
Impact Crawford was withheld from the starting nine for the second half of Saturday's doubleheader while recovering from lower-body cramps, but he was at least able to make an appearance off the bench as a pinch-hitter. The veteran apparently felt well upon reporting to the ballpark Sunday, so he'll step back into his normal starting role in the infield in the series finale.

Impact This update from Kapler explains why the veteran shortstop was a late scratch from the nightcap. The skipper noted that Crawford could get the day off again Sunday if the issue persists through the night, so he can be considered questionable for the series finale at this point.

Impact It looks like the Giants simply decided that it was best to give the veteran shortstop the second half of the twin bill off, as he'll be able to come off the bench if the situation calls for it. Mauricio Dubon will start as shortstop and bat sixth.

Longoria out at least 6 weeks with left shoulder sprain
The San Francisco Giants placed Evan Longoria on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder sprain before Sunday’s series finale against the Chicago CubsJUNE 6, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Sitting one day after collision Crawford is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.
Impact Crawford was involved in a collision with teammate Evan Longoria in the field during Saturday's game that resulted in the latter sustaining a shoulder injury that will sideline him for 4-to-6 weeks, but manager Gabe Kapler indicated Sunday that Crawford was feeling fine, according to Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area. Given that context, the lefty-hitting Crawford's absence from the lineup Sunday against a right-handed pitcher (Kyle Hendricks) is suspect, but fantasy managers will have to take Kapler's word that the 34-year-old shortstop is healthy. Crawford contributed a double in Saturday's game to give him 21 extra-base hits over 188 plate appearances in what's shaping up to be a career year for the veteran.
