Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Tommy Edman is currently dealing with an ankle injury. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts recently provided an update on Edman's status, via ESPN.
“The ankle got a little sore,” Roberts said. “We want to make sure that we're doing everything we can so it doesn't get worse.”
Edman, 30, has slashed .242/.282/.472 across 44 games played so far in the 2025 MLB season. The versatile defender has also hit nine home runs and eight doubles while also stealing three bases. Edman can play either middle infield position in addition to the outfield as well.
The Dodgers are playing without Edman at the moment as he deals with the injury. The hope is that he can return sooner rather than later, of course. LA is proceeding with caution when it comes to Edman's sore ankle, though. The Dodgers will continue to closely monitor the situation.
