Dodgers roster move bodes well for Tommy Edman's Opening Day availability
"The Los Angeles Dodgers made a roster move Tuesday, and their actions could mean Tommy Edman is close to a return. Edman had two stints on the injured list during the 2025 regular season due to his ankle, and had to stay at second base while he battled the injury. He underwent surgery in the offseason to repair his ankle."
"With Ibañez on the roster, the Dodgers had four players who could potentially play at second base on their 40-man roster: Edman, Ibañez, Miguel Rojas and Hyeseong Kim. Ibañez is now out of the picture, leaving just Edman, Kim and Rojas to man the position. Edman is the Dodgers most likely choice here, as he played 66 games at the position last season - more than anyone else on the team."
"The last two and a half weeks I've been working into walking and pushing off it more. I got into like light skipping this week. Hopefully jogging next this next week. So you know, that's kind of where I'm at right now and each step along the way, it's kind of just being patient and making sure I'm hitting all the checkpoints with with no discomfort. And everything I've done so far has felt really good."
The Los Angeles Dodgers claimed Mike Siani off waivers and designated Andy Ibañez for assignment, removing Ibañez as insurance at second base. Ibañez had been signed to a one-year major-league deal and offered depth while Tommy Edman recovered from offseason ankle surgery. With Ibañez off the 40-man roster, the Dodgers have Edman, Hyeseong Kim and Miguel Rojas as the remaining second-base options. Edman played 66 games at second base last season, the most on the team. Edman reported steady recovery progress, moving from a boot to walking, light skipping and plans to begin jogging soon.
