OK, that pretty much is what I saw when he was in the minors, too. He'd be going to his left and field a ball that nobody else would have gotten to anyway, and then he'd rush a throw to first without getting his feet set first. Assuming you throw righthanded, you can do that sometimes when going to your right, but if you try it going to your left you're going to sail that ball like an NFL QB throwing off his back foot...which is exactly what Edwin would do, sail that thing over the first baseman's head for an E-5. To compound the problem, on a lot of those plays, he *had* no play and should have held the ball instead of trying to do too much. I agree that these issues should be correctable with proper coaching and experience. I thought he did less of this as the year went on, or am I looking through rose-colored glasses?

I would still like to see Edwin at 1B. But I think he can be made into a serviceable MLB third baseman.
