Edman has logged action in five major-league games since being promoted from Triple-A Memphis on June 8 and is 1-for-6 with a double, a stolen base and three runs.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie has only started one of those five contests, appearing as an in-game replacement in the other four. Edman's big-league tenure is expected to only last through Jedd Gyorko's (back) stay on the injured list, which could conclude as early as Tuesday.

Edman was called up from Triple-A Memphis on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

With Jedd Gyorko (back) landing on the injured list, Edman will join the major-league team for the first time. He may not be a marquee prospect, but Edman is a legitimate prospect, arguably ranking within the top 10 in the Cardinals organization. He's hit .305/.356/.513 with seven homers and nine steals with Memphis this season. The switch-hitting Edman should at least see some starts at second base against left-handed pitching.
