Tommy Edman Could Be Delayed Heading Into Camp
11 months agoSt. Louis Cardinals second baseman Tommy Edman (wrist) said that he might be slightly delayed on the hitting side heading into spring training. He's going through a progression and expects to be ready for Opening Day, but he hasn't had any bat-to-ball contact this winter other than wiffle balls in his rehab. Edman had arthroscopic surgery on his right wrist in October and is slowly working his way back this offseason. The 28-year-old should be ready for Opening Day, though, barring a setback, but that doesn't mean he won't get off to a slow start in 2024. Edman was a regular for the Cardinals during their disappointing 2023 campaign and hit .248/.307/.399 with a career-high-tying 13 home runs, 47 RBI, 27 steals and 69 runs scored in 137 games. The switch-hitter's versatility -- he played second, shortstop and the outfield -- is his most attractive selling point to fantasy managers.
