Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt's lone hit of the game left the yard in the first inning. That stretched the first baseman's hitting streak to eight games, a span in which he's batting .471 (16-for-34) with nine RBI and four runs scored. The surge has him up to a .293/.361/.387 slash line with a homer, 10 RBI, 11 runs scored and a pair of stolen bases in 19 contests this season. Outside of a dip in power, the rest of his numbers are right where they should be.

Goldschmidt went 3-for-4 with a run and three RBI in Thursday's 8-3 victory versus the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
All three of Goldschmidt's hits were singles, but they were productive as they resulted in three runs batted in.

During the streak, Goldschmidt is batting an even .500 (15-for-30) with eight RBI.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-3 with a walk in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Mets.
EDGE Analysis

Goldschmidt went 3-for-5 with two RBI during Friday's 4-2 win against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
The 34-year-old entered Friday's contest 3-for-32 over the past eight games, so the three-hit performance was certainly a welcome sight. Goldschmidt is still looking for his first home run of the season and has significant work to do on his .196/.302/.239 slash line.

Goldschmidt went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Wednesday's 2-0 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt has only hit safely in five of his 10 games this season. He's posted a shaky .162/.295/.216 slash line with an RBI, seven runs scored, a pair of stolen bases and two doubles through 44 plate appearances. He tore the cover off the ball in spring training, so there's little reason to be concerned about Goldschmidt's long-term numbers -- he's never hit lower than .250 in any season of his career, and that came in his rookie year.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-1 with four walks and two runs scored in Thursday's win over the Pirates. He also registered one stolen base.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt, who's known as a slugger, played set-up man for the Cardinals on Thursday. The 34-year-old is expected to be a high-end first baseman in fantasy this season, though it's unlikely he registers many more stolen bases this season.

Goldschmidt went 4-for-4 with a home run, a stolen base and three runs scored in Wednesday's 29-8 win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt has used a new bat model for the first time in his career, per Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and it's been paying off in spring games. The first baseman is 10-for-19 with three homers, a double, four RBI and seven runs scored in eight Grapefruit League contests. It looks like he won't need too much adjustment time to the new bat, which is great news. Goldschmidt remains a high-end first baseman in fantasy who should be a solid pickup around the fourth round.

Goldschmidt will sit Thursday against the Brewers, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Cardinals typically don't rotate their lineup much, but they've given several regulars a rest over the last two days after clinching a playoff spot Tuesday. Matt Carpenter will play first base Thursday.

He has been an essential asset in the Cardinals' historic 16-game winning streak.

Goldschmidt went 5-for-9 with a home run, a double, four RBI and three runs scored as the Cardinals swept Friday's doubleheader versus the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Goldschmidt has recorded multiple hits in each of his last four games, going 11-for-18 with four homers and two doubles in that span. The first baseman's massive surge has lifted his slash line .296/.364/.515 with 30 long balls, 97 RBI, 99 runs scored and 12 stolen bases through 653 plate appearances. He's locked in at the plate at the perfect time for his fantasy managers.
