Tommy Edman to Have Ankle Surgery Next Week
Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman/outfielder Tommy Edman (ankle) will undergo surgery on his right ankle next week, according to executive vice president and general manager Brandon Gomes. Barring a setback, Edman is expected to be ready around the start of spring training in February, according to Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. The 30-year-old switch-hitter has had issues with the same ankle over the last couple of seasons, but hopefully the surgery will alleviate any concerns he might have had going forward. Edman has won World Series rings with L.A. in his first two seasons with the team while hitting .229/.280/.392 with a .672 OPS, 19 home runs, 69 RBI, 69 runs, and nine steals in 134 regular-season games. He hasn't been all that relevant in fantasy, but he has stepped up in the playoffs when it matters most the last two seasons, as Edman has hit .282 with 33 hits, four homers, 20 RBI, and 16 runs scored for the Blue.
