EDGE Analysis

The veteran first baseman was arguably the Cardinals' best offensive weapon on a night when their bats couldn't get much going overall.

He later reached on an infield single that resulted in an RBI, and he ultimately came around to score as well. Due to the Cardinals long layoff, Goldschmidt has only 29 plate appearances this season, though he has two home runs, six runs scored and three RBI to go along with a .333/.379/.556 line.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-3 with a walk and two runs in a win over the Pirates on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Teammates Dexter Fowler, Tyler O'Neill and Paul DeJong took care of the big hits for the Cardinals, but Goldschimdt was effective setting the table by getting on base thrice. The slugger will look to complement his impressive power numbers this season with a more consistent on-base presence in a manner akin to Friday, as his Cardinals debut campaign in 2019 featured his lowest batting average (.260) since his initial big-league cup of coffee in 2011.

Goldschmidt, who was present for the Cardinals' first day of summer camp Friday, reports his previously sore right elbow is feeling much better following the long layoff, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports. "I was able to take some time off and give it some rest and get treatment on it for awhile," Goldschmidt said during a video conference at Busch Stadium on Friday. "It's 100 percent now. I'm not sure if it would have been if we rolled right into the season. Hopefully that's one positive, personally."

EDGE Analysis

The extended suspension of all official baseball activities carried a silver lining for several injured players, with Goldschmidt one prominent example. The 32-year-old remained in South Florida for the last three months, which not only gave him access to the Cardinals' spring training facility in Jupiter, Florida for treatment, but also enabled him to work out with the likes of Giancarlo Stanton, Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer. The fact he was able to get at-bats against two of the most elite pitchers in the game should certainly have him ready to jump back into batting practice against his own team's pitchers.
