It is not if Edman comes back…it is how long he rehabs in Springfield. He likely will be back after the All-Star break on July 19 in Atlanta.
This article suggests we may still be involved with Jordan Montgomery.

Edman is slated to reach free agency at the end of the deal.
I like this article because it refers to Eddie as a SS which is where I hope he plays this year.
“You have to give to get, and this is something the Cardinals need to do, no matter the cost”
I do not agree with this.
“I don’t know much about how these things work, but 450,000, in this age of gazillions, doesn’t seem like a dealbreaker”.
I agree with this. The Cardinals need to just pay him…he is going to win in the arbitration hearing anyway.
Your use of “utility player” is not accurate. It implies that he plays a lot of positions without being a starter at any. That is not true. He has been the best and could be the starter at SS, 2B, CF & RF.
