Xavier Edwards went 2-for-5 in the Marlins' 9-5 win over the Phillies, scoring twice and stealing two bases.

Fantasy Impact

Edwards's performance continues to highlight his role as a dynamic table-setter for Miami, utilizing his speed effectively on the base paths. With a batting average of .328 over 52 games and an impressive 24 stolen bases, Edwards is proving to be a valuable asset in fantasy lineups, particularly in categories like runs scored and stolen bases. His ability to maintain a high BABIP (.394) suggests sustained success in getting on base, which is crucial for maximizing his speed potential. Fantasy managers should continue to leverage his consistent hitting and base-stealing prowess as long as he maintains regular playing time and batting order position.
