| News: Crawford went 2-for-4 driving in two runs and stealing his ninth base of the season in Wednesday's beating of the Brewers. | Impact: Crawford bumped his batting average back above .300 in the game and has been a driving force for the Dodgers lineup. He also scored two runs in the outing. Now finally healthy, Crawford is looking much more like the old player he was with the Rays earlier in his career.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Crawford is not in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Nationals. | Impact: After making five straight starts, Crawford will park it while Scott Van Slyke mans left field and Dee Gordon leads off. It seems the Dodgers are just playing it safe with the 31-year-old, as he's missed a pair of games this month with hamstring injuries.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Crawford went 2-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Nationals. | Impact: Crawford has eight hits in his last 18 at-bats, raising his batting average back up to .321 in the process. Combine the excellent average with five homers, eight steals, and 24 runs, and it becomes clear that his fantasy owners are getting far more than what was expected before the season. The only downside is that batting leadoff for a National League team suppresses his RBI potential.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Crawford (hamstring) is back in the lineup Friday, Los Angeles Times reports. | Impact: Crawford was out of the lineup with a tight hamstring Wednesday, but the team off day Thursday provided enough time for him to get over the issue. He's one of the few bright spots for a bleak Dodgers offense this season, batting .301/.368/.496 with five homers and six stolen bases.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Manager Don Mattingly said Crawford is dealing with a "little bit" of tightness in his hamstring and is not in the lineup Wednesday, the Los Angeles Times reports. | Impact: Crawford will still be available to pinch-hit if needed, but with a team off day Thursday, Mattingly hopes the rest will allow him to return to the lineup Friday. Elian Herrera gets the start in his place Wednesday.(RotoWire, ) |
