I am probably in the minority here, but have the results been good? Edman has a .294 OBP coming into today. A wRC+ of 87 (well below league average). He's also pretty terrible at 3B defensively.

For me, Lane Thomas is the better option to ever be in the OF.
Slick try. What's Edman's wRC+ when he plays RF?
Don't forget to add against LHP to that split

The “shoehorning into RF for matchup purposes” results. Who cares about when he was subbing for Matt or Wong?

The argument is RF days, and that had happened for lefty bat/scouting. So that’s the numbers that matter here.
Edman started in RF against archer who is worse against RH batters than LH...there was no scouting/matchup reasoning there; it was just stupid

Lol you guys know I’m right.

The entire argument is “why is Edman in OF??? Omg!” and Shildt says “for matchup” and so far he’s been right.

Keep trying.

Ur dumb

Again what was the matchup reason for Edman starting in RF against the RHP archer? Archer is worse against RH batters than LH, so you don’t want a guy batting LH in his case.

“Ur dumb” good one assbag.

Ask Shildt.

Scouting on Lane may have been bad against that pitcher? I don’t know.
