Xavier Edwards Wants To Steal 60 Bases In 2025
Miami Marlins shortstop Xavier Edwards said on Friday that his goal in 2025 is to "swipe 60 bags." In only 70 games for the Marlins last year, Edwards went 31-for-35 in stolen bases, so it's certainly possible for him to reach the 60-steal mark if he can stay healthy over the course of a full 162-game season. Overall in his second year in the big leagues in 2024, the 25-year-old infielder hit .328/.397/.423 with an .820 OPS, only one home run, 26 RBI and 39 runs scored to go with his 31 steals. The lack of power from the premium position certainly hurts in fantasy, but Edwards can be useful in category leagues for his contact skills and speed. RotoBaller has him listed in the fifth tier among shortstops at No. 17, just ahead of Boston's Trevor Story. Edwards can also be an asset in on-base-percentage leagues if he continues to take his walks.
