Dodgers' Tommy Edman Out Again with Ankle Injury

Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Tommy Edman missed his second consecutive game due to a sore right ankle sustained earlier in the week, despite having an extra rest day. Manager Dave Roberts described Edman's status as 'day to day' and suggested he might be available to pinch hit, although the possibility of a stint on the injured list remains. Miguel Rojas replaced Edman at second base for Friday's series opener against the Atlanta Braves. The injury is not considered serious, and Roberts expressed hope Edman could return during the weekend series. The Dodgers are also contending with significant pitching injuries, with several starters and relievers currently sidelined. Some injured pitchers, like Blake Snell and Michael Kopech, are expected to resume activity soon.
