FACTS/FLUKES: Edman, Gausman, Riley, Gallegos, Aguilar

Edman should find more SB in 2021... After hitting .304 with 11 HR, 36 RBI, 59 R, and 15 SB in 349 MLB plate appearances in 2019, Tommy Edman (3B, STL) appeared to offer a solid power and speed combination. However, both his power and speed paces slowed in 2020, as he hit .250 with 5 HR, 26 RBI, 29 R, and two SB in 227 plate appearances. While his 2019 power may not repeat, what can we expect from his speed in 2021?
