The Los Angeles Dodgers have secured utility player Tommy Edman with a five-year, $74 million contract extension that includes a sixth-year club option. Edman, who joined the Dodgers at the trade deadline and earned NLCS MVP honors, was instrumental in the team's World Series championship. The deal features a $17 million signing bonus and $25 million in deferred money, comprising 33% of the contract value, to be paid over a span of ten years. Dodgers executive Andrew Friedman, who had coveted Edman for years before acquiring him, ensured the 29-year-old will remain a key asset through at least the 2029 season.
