Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Goes deep for third time in spring
Edman went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Tuesday's Cactus League win over Cleveland.
Edman kicked off the scoring in the contest with a two-run shot in the first inning and later plated another run with a bases-loaded walk. He started at second base, which is likely where he'll slot in at the beginning of the campaign while Hyeseong Kim works on his hitting in the minors. Edman is expected to eventually move out to center field, so he should be a consistent presence in the Dodgers' lineup throughout the campaign.

Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Swats second spring homer
Edman went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Thursday's Cactus League victory against Texas.
Through 23 at-bats this spring, Edman has five hits, including two homers and a double. He started in center field Thursday, and he has also logged time at second base. Edman could begin the campaign as Los Angeles' starter at the keystone if the organization opts to have Hyeseong Kim spend some time in the minors as he adjusts to baseball in North America. If that's the case, Edman could quickly gain fantasy eligibility at second base in leagues with a 20-game threshold, boosting his value considerably.

Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Gets start at second base
Edman is starting at second base and batting second in Tuesday's Cactus League game against the Mariners.
Hyeseong Kim's bat might not be ready for primetime, so the Dodgers could open Kim at Triple-A and give Edman the second-base job instead, at least to open the year. Edman is only eligible in the outfield in formats that require 20 games played at a position the prior season, but he is a good bet to add second base or even shortstop eligibility in season.

Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Pegged for center field duty
Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes said Monday that the team plans for Edman to be its center fielder next season, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Edman offers the versatility to move around to multiple positions, if needed, and that might be required during the season. However, at this early stage of the offseason, the plan is for the switch hitter to see most of his action in center field. Edman -- who signed a five-year, $74 million contract extension in late November -- slashed .237/.294/.417 in 37 regular-season games and .328/.354/.508 in 16 postseason contests for the Dodgers.

Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Signs five-year extension
Edman signed a five-year, $74 million contract extension with the Dodgers on Friday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Edman started the 2024 regular season on the Cardinals' injured list due to lingering pain in his surgically repaired right wrist. He began his rehab assignment in early July, but before he could be activated from the IL, Edman was sent to the Dodgers at the trade deadline. He made his 2024 regular-season debut with the Dodgers in mid-August, and his versatility to play both in the infield and center field played a key role in the Dodgers' World Series run, during which he was named MVP of the NLCS against the Mets. He finished the postseason with a slash line of .328/.354/.508 with five stolen bases, two home runs and 13 RBI across 67 plate appearances.
