Edwards is a hold — league-average skill, no luck to chase.

His expected wOBA is .313, .002 below the league average of .315, and he has 574 plate appearances — well past the point where that number becomes reliable. His actual wOBA is .327, a little higher than the expected number, because his BABIP is .319 against a league average of .295. BABIP needs about 800 balls in play to stabilize and he has 432, so some of that extra average will come back to him as the sample grows. His expected wOBA has been stepping down across the season, which is the other reason not to treat this as a buy. He makes a ton of contact — 13.4% strikeouts, 11.3% walks, 7.5% swinging strikes — but there is no power underneath it. Hold. 0 HR / 7 R / 3 RBI / 2 SB / .262 AVG is a deep-league hold, a rotational counting drag not worth chasing.
