[QUOTE="the juiceman cometh, post: 1783375, member: 747321"] Sure, my point is not that Edman hasn't been valuable. It's that he was by some metrics the most valuable player in all of baseball for a couple months and then has been progressively cooling off to the point where he has been a replacement level player over the last month and a half, using those same metrics. Plus that article you linked extrapolates current WAR to 162 games, which ignores trendlines. It has Edman at 6.2 WAR. Given how badly he has fallen off I'm not expecting he makes it there. In fact I wouldn't be surprised to see him squeezed a bit for playing time with DeJong raking at SS amd Gorman likely the preferred 2B against righties. [/QUOTE]
