Edman went 2-for-4 with one RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in a 5-3 win over the Marlins on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Edman now has 19 stolen bases to tie him for second best in MLB. The prototypical leadoff hitter is also getting on base at a .342 clip and has come around to score 58 times in 2022, putting him second only to the Yankees' Aaron Judge in the latter category. Edman is delivering on his potential and is on pace for career highs in both offensive categories.

Edman went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Monday's 9-0 rout of the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old infielder is in a bit of a funk at the plate, batting .147 (5-for-34) over the last eight games, but he's still maintained fantasy value with three steals. Edman is up to 18 stolen base on the season to go along with a .269/.340/.398 slash line, seven homers, 31 RBI and 56 runs through 74 contests.

Edman went 1-for-5 with an RBI-single and a stolen base in a 5-3 win over the Cubs on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Edman now has 17 steals on the season to tie him for fourth in the majors. The 27-year-old second baseman has been caught stealing only twice this season and is on pace to well surpass his career-high 30 stolen bags in 2021. With an impressive 89% stolen-base success rate, the Cardinals should continue to give him free reign on the basepaths.

EDGE Analysis
Edman hit a double in the eighth inning and worked the front end of a double-steal with Dylan Carlson after the latter walked. The double was Edman's first extra-base hit in five games, and the steal was his first since June 10.

Edman went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and a second run scored in a 9-1 win over the Pirates during the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader.
EDGE Analysis
After getting a breather in the matinee, Edman launched the first pitch he saw in the nightcap to right field for a leadoff homer. The infielder remains on pace for a career-best campaign, racking up seven homers, 15 steals, 26 RBI and 51 runs through 62 games to go along with a sharp .285/.359/.434 slash line.

Edman is out of the lineup for the first game of the Cardinals' doubleheader Tuesday with the Pirates, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Edmundo Sosa will pick up a start at shortstop while Edman rests for the early game before presumably checking back into the lineup for the nightcap. Through his first 13 games of June, Edman is slashing .294/.368/.431 with two home runs and three stolen bases.

Edman went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old played hero in this one, launching a walkoff blast in the ninth inning after the Cardinals were facing a 4-1 deficit heading into the bottom of the eighth. Edman is rolling to begin the month of June, collecting a hit in nine of 10 starts and slashing .293/.383/.439 with two homers, three steals, three RBI and 10 runs.

Edman went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and a walk in Friday's 2-0 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Edman picked up his steal in the eighth inning, though he wasn't brought around to score. He had gone six games without a steal, which is tied for his second-longest stretch of the season after he began the year with no thefts in the first nine contests. The infielder is slashing .275/.356/.405 with 15 stolen bases, five home runs, 23 RBI and 46 runs scored through 251 plate appearances.

Edman went 2-for-7 with two walks, a solo home run and a second run scored across both games of Saturday's doubleheader split with the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
He took Matt Swarmer deep in the sixth inning for the Cardinals' only run of the matinee before reaching base three times in the nightcap. The homer was Edman's first since May 14 and fifth of the season, but power isn't his biggest asset -- he's slashing .281/.357/.424 through 53 games with 14 steals, 23 RBI and 43 runs.
