Tommy Edman (torso) scratched from Cardinals' Tuesday lineup; Lane Thomas enters

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Tommy Edman has been scratched from Tuesday's game against the Miami Marlins.

What It Means:

Edman was originally slated to lead off and start in right field, but he's been removed due to "right trunk tightness." As a result, Lane Thomas will now take over in right, and he'll bat eighth against Trevor Rogers after a lineup shakeup.

In 297 plate appearances this season, Edman has a .264 batting average with a .692 OPS, 4 home runs, 36 runs and 18 RBI.
