An MRI revealed that Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford has no structural damage in his knee, according to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. She adds that Crawford could be available in an emergency, meaning he'll avoid an IL stint and should be viewed as day-to-day. (Susan Slusser on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Crawford suffered the injury on Tuesday against Atlanta and sat out Wednesday's contest. He has taken a step back in production this season, slashing just .227/.314/.355 with five homers, 30 RBI, 21 walks, and 48 strikeouts. (He hit .298 with 25 homers last year.) The veteran infielder is rostered in 49 percent of ESPN fantasy leagues at this point in the season.
