Miami Marlins infielder Xavier Edwards was productive first full season in the majors. Edwards hit .283 with three home runs, 43 RBI, 75 runs, and 27 stolen bases over 619 plate appearances. The switch-hitter batted .306 versus left-handed pitching. With an ADP at 180 over the last two weeks, Edwards is a midrange second base target. He falls just outside the top ten second basemen per ADP. He is slightly more appealing because he has both second base and shortstop eligibility in 2026. Edwards is slated to play most of his games at second base and should hit second in the batting order. He is a fine choice for your team, but with power near zero, you will need to adapt a plan to get those home runs elsewhere. The 26-year-old is a solid three-category contributor in batting average, runs, and stolen bases. Reasonable expectations would be a handful of home runs, 70 runs, and 25 stolen bases with a .275 batting average. ATC is on board with the projection and has him hitting .277 with four homers, 69 runs, and 27 stolen bases in 2026. With health, another 600 plate appearances look likely for the diminutive Edwards in 2026. Draft accordingly.less...
