Semien woke up with a swollen wrist Saturday morning after being hit by a pitch in Friday's 6-5 loss to Toronto, and he'll undergo X-rays, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Semien is out of the lineup Saturday and it's now known his absence is due to a wrist injury stemming from a HBP that occurred in the second inning of Friday's contest. Although Semien finished the game, he's now dealing with swelling and will undergo further testing. Should he miss time, Josh Smith and Ezequiel Duran would be in line for starts at second base.

Semien went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Facing the club with which he produced a career-high 45 homers and 102 RBI back in 2021, Semien flashed his old Rogers Centre power by launching a Louis Varland slider over the left-center field wall in the eighth inning. The blast ended a 20-game homerless drought for the 34-year-old Semien, who won't come close to matching those numbers in 2025 -- over 122 contests, he's on pace for the lowest OPS of his career at .652, and he has just 14 homers and 59 RBI.
