Edwards was an outfielder in the Cardinals Organization. His first professional pitching experience was in the Pecos League.

He excelled as a reliever in Frisco (AA) and Round Rock (AAA) and was called up to the Major Leagues today. The Rangers put him right to work. Trailing 5-1 he pitched the 8th inning and the first batter he faced was Albert Pujols. He got Pujols to pop out in foul territory before giving up a hit to Josh Hamilton and walking Howie Kendrick.
