His placement in the lineup going forward likely depends on how the Cardinals respond to the changes, but Dylan Carlson will lead off in Thursday's matchup.

Struggling since two-game absence Edman is 1-for-8 with a double, a run and two strikeouts over his first pair of contests following a two-game absence due to torso tightness.

It bears mentioning Edman's struggles predate the injury as well, as he was only hitting .214 (12-for-56) with 12 strikeouts in the 12 contests before being sidelined.
