I don't love the idea, but I don't hate it. I feel like Edman is one of the many flash in the pan types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus who is the other option? Give the job back to a declining Carpenter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holt_bruce81 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Can't stand Joe Maddon and his whining....Glad we eliminated them from the playoffs. Maybe now Zobrist will quit doing jumping jacks at 2nd base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edman just has a Bo Hart/Pete Kozma feel to me. I hope he stays consistent and improves like DeJong has. I am just weary of players like Edman. In an ideal world, we traded for Rendon last year and we've got an MVP level player at 3B lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to see him do it for more than a half season in a game that can be flukey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be given every opportunity to be starter at 3B heading into ST. Edman will be in super utility role ala Jedd Gyorko... I wish we could trade Carpenter and sign Rendon...

I mean they’ve already pretty much went away from Carpenter though... Edman plays pretty much everyday. Only way Carp plays is to give Edman a day off(rare), Edman plays the OF, or 2B for Wong. Rendon would certainly be nice but I’d much rather add to the rotation and bullpen. Any good pitchers available this FA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've gone away from Carp since the injury, but that's more because he continued to not hit even after coming back. He's started to hit recently and has seen increased time even before the Wong injury... Carp is going to play because of the contract. It's really that simple. It's same scenario as Fowler. They're going to hit reset in the offseason and Carp will be the everyday 3B next year barring an unforeseen trade... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep warning against this, but most Cards fans want to claim him as the next Carpenter/DeJong instead of the more likely Bo Hart/Pete Kozma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
