Infielder for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Tommy Edman, has opened up about the possibility of having ankle surgery during the offseason.

Edman has not had a chance to take a break since the Dodgers were in the postseason and then in the World Series.

Throughout this 2025 season, Edman has appeared in 97 games out of the 162 games in the last season, and he also appeared in 16 games of the postseason.

Edman did not play several times throughout the season because of injuries and because manager Dave Roberts wanted to avoid further injuries.

During an interview, Edman discussed his feelings about his right ankle injury and what was next for him.

“We’ll probably evaluate that after the season’s over. For now, I think just playing the rest of the games of the World Series will be totally fine,” Edman said.

Edman’s injury occurred last season, when he was still with the St. Louis Cardinals.

Since Edman was traded, he did not have time for the injury to be properly diagnosed.

Now that the Dodgers have won the World Series, it is a matter of time to see what the medical staff decides to do with this ankle injury.
