Tommy Edman Shines as Dodgers Head to World Series

Traded from the Cardinals, Edman becomes NLCS MVP, leading the Dodgers past the Mets to face the Yankees.

Tommy Edman, acquired by the Dodgers in a mid-season trade, was named the National League Championship Series MVP.
Edman hit .407 with 11 RBIs in the series, becoming a key player in the Dodgers' lineup and contributing both offensively and defensively.
The Dodgers had long been interested in Edman due to his versatility, which aligns with their strategic emphasis on adaptable players.
Edman's postseason performance included crucial hits, including a two-run homer and a double in the series-clinching Game 6 against the Mets.
The trade saw Edman move from the Cardinals to the Dodgers in exchange for pitcher Erick Fedde and outfielder Tommy Pham, with Edman's value underestimated due to prior injuries.
