Cardinals’ Tommy Edman has had a strong start to the season, and that could continue against Madison Bumgarner on Friday night.
Tommy Edman has been the most pleasant surprise for the St. Louis Cardinals this season. He is hitting at a high level and playing even better defense, primarily playing at second base while seeing time at shortstop and the outfield.
But on Friday night, in a matchup against the Arizona Diamondbacks, Edman could be primed for a breakout game.
