Highly-regarded prospect in the Brewers' system, 12th overall pick in the 1976 American League expansion draft, present at the Blue Jays' first training camp, Edge didn't make the majors until August, 1979, and when the season ended so did his MLB career.

In fact, his brief stay was "commemorated" by having somebody else's photo on his only Topps card. "Butch Edge" on the 1980 Blue Jays Rookies card is actually third baseman Butch Alberts.
