The Los Angeles Dodgers have secured a significant asset for their future by extending the contract of utility player Tommy Edman for five years at $74 million, including a club option for a sixth year. This deal comes after Edman's impressive postseason performance, where he played a crucial role in the Dodgers' World Series victory.

Edman, who joined the Dodgers mid-season from a three-team trade, faced injury setbacks but showcased his talent in the playoffs, earning MVP honors in the NLCS. The Dodgers are also looking to bolster their roster further, eyeing top free agents to enhance their already strong lineup.
