Tommy Edman (hip) held out of St. Louis lineup Monday afternoon
St. Louis Cardinals infielder Tommy Edman (hip) is not in the starting lineup for Monday afternoon's makeup game against right-hander Zack Greinke and the Kansas City Royals.
What It Means:
Edman exited Sunday's 7-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks with a sore left hip flexor and is considered day-to-day, but he was due for a day off after starting each of the Cardinals' first 21 games. Harrison Bader is covering the leadoff role on Monday, while Brendan Donovan is replacing Edman on second base and batting ninth.
numberFire’s models project Bader for 12.5 FanDuel points on Monday, and he has a $3,100 salary. Greinke, who owns a career 22.5% strikeout rate, has struck out just 6.9% of batters this season and ranks in the bottom 1% of the AL.
