Ex-Cub Edmonds wants to rejoin Cardinals

MLB.com reports: Jim Edmonds, the long-time Cardinals center fielder who helped the Cubs win the NL Central in 2008, said Sunday he wants to come back and play for St. Louis in 2010.

Edmonds, who hasn’t played since not being re-signed by the Cubs after the ‘08 season, appeared at Tony La Russa’s animal-rescue benefit and said he was “challenging” the Cardinals manager to let him rejoin his old team and would play for the league minimum.
