Yeah, definitely, you know, it&#8217;s feeling good. I&#8217;ve kind of just making sure I check off all the boxes,\u201d Edman explained. \u201cI got some outfield work today during BP, chasing after fly balls, doing some agility work. So today was a good day, you know, didn&#8217;t have anything with any setbacks with the ankle. So, you know, I&#8217;m just continuing to progress and, you know, follow the plan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked if his previous ankle injury has prepared him for the rehab process for this one, Edman said yes, noting that he&#8217;s working smarter on getting back because he knows the steps.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, you know, unfortunately, I&#8217;m familiar with all the steps that I need to go through to get back to playing, just haven&#8217;t dealt with this a few times now,\u201d Edman noted. \u201cAnd I think, I mean, just having gone through it a couple of times, I think this time just a little bit more intentional. I&#8217;m trying to be very specific in terms of what movements bother it, and then making sure I feel good with those before I get back to playing. So I think just having some familiarity with what the ankle injury has been in the past has allowed me to be a little bit smarter about it this time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When will Edman be ready to return to the field for the Dodgers? While that isn&#8217;t known just yet, the do-it-all sparkplug let it be known that he&#8217;s feeling good and looks forward to being back on the field with his teammates soon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, yeah, it&#8217;s feeling good,\u201d Edman said. \u201cAnd yeah, I&#8217;m just excited to get back to playing again.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote data-dnt=\"true\" data-width=\"500\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Nearing a return from the I.L.
