Manager Dave Roberts confirmed Edman's ankle has not healed well, affecting his ability to run. Prior to injury, Edman had impressive numbers, slashing .252 with eight home runs. The Dodgers, already grappling with other key player absences, managed to keep afloat, going 6-4 on their recent road trip and currently leading the National League West.
Edman's ankle has not responded well to treatment, making his return to the lineup no longer a certainty as expected.
Roberts stated, "It's going to take some time," indicating that Edman will miss more time than initially anticipated.
Despite missing key hitters, the Dodgers managed to split their series against the Diamondbacks and went 6-4 on their recent road trip.
Prior to his injury, Edman showcased promising stats with a .252 average, eight home runs, and an OPS of .818.
