Edmonds

Uncommitted. 5-foot-8, 160-pounds. Edmonds has a short, compact, build. Edmonds smoked an RBI double to the left-center gap. He has a smooth leg-kick load, rotates hips well, and extends through the zone with above-average hand speed to drive the ball with force. He is good speed around the bases + instincts. Defensively, Edmonds showed nice glove-work, especially when he had to get a ball on the move. Showed he could get the ball out quickly and accurately.
