Being Ready for Opening Day is "Possible" for Tommy Edman
Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Tommy Edman (ankle) said he had his walking boot removed from his right ankle 2 1/2 weeks ago after having surgery in November, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register. It's "possible" that Edman will be ready for Opening Day in late March, but he isn't going to rush back. The 30-year-old switch-hitter almost certainly won't be ready for the start of spring training in a few weeks, and it's unlikely that the Dodgers will push him to be ready for Opening Day. For fantasy purposes, Edman doesn't move the needle all that much and is ranked as the No. 29 fantasy 2B by RotoBaller this year. He played in only 97 games in his second season with the Blue in 2025, hitting .225/.274/.382 with a career-worst .655 OPS, 13 homers, 49 RBI, and 49 runs. His ankle was an issue for most of the year, but even when healthy, he's not much of a power source and has only nine steals in the last two seasons after swiping at least 27 bags the previous three campaigns.
