Cardinals shortstop Tommy Edman recently made a play where he started on the shortstop side of second base before ranging well to the left of the bag to make a spinning, off-balance fling to throw out Christian Yelich at first base. It was a difficult play that Edman made look rather routine.
Bally Sports Midwest summed it up in five words: "Tommy Edman: good at baseball."
That's perfect, isn't it? Edman doesn't hit the ball the hardest or for the highest average, he might not have the strongest throwing arm, and he's not the fastest guy in the league, although he's certainly plenty fast.
