Tommy Edman leading off Wednesday for Cardinals

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Tommy Edman will bat leadoff on Wednesday against left-hander Mike Minor and the Cincinnati Reds.

What It Means:

Edman was the last batter in the order on Tuesday and he provided the Cardinals with their only score of the game via a solo home run. He will move into the leadoff spot against the Reds' southpaw while the lefty-hitting Lars Nootbaar takes a seat.

Edman has a $3,300 salary on Wednesday and numberFire’s models project him for 15.1 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Cardinals' implied total (5.64) is tied with the Toronto Blue Jays for the highest mark in the majors today.
