Swipes first bag of year
Edwards went 2-for-3 with a run scored and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the Rockies.
Analysis
It was the first steal of 2026 for the switch-hitting second baseman. Edwards is hitting lower in the order against left-handed pitching to begin the year, which could cost him occasional opportunities to take an extra base, but he's generated plenty on his own by going 4-for-11 through three games with three runs scored and a 0:1 BB:K.
