Naylor went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Tigers.

Advice: Naylor opened the scoring in the fourth inning, launching a 3-2 pitch from Alex Faedo for his 23rd homer of the year. Naylor's gone 3-for-8 with a pair of RBI in his last two games after missing the Guardians' previous three contests with "general soreness". Overall, the 27-year-old Naylor is slashing .241/.320/.477 through 413 plate appearances this season with 74 RBI, 58 runs scored and five stolen bases. Rotowire.com Today, 12:51 pm

David Bednar allowed a run but still got a save Monday against the Astros.

Advice: Bednar loaded the bases, and in a 5-2 game, the Pirates decided not to risk a walk-off grand slam to Yordan Alvarez and intentionally walked him to drive in a run with two outs. He was able to get Yainer Diaz out to with a pop-up to Oneil Cruz, and despite allowing a run Bednar was able to pick up his 19th save. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:12 pm

Dodgers acquired INF/OF Tommy Edman and RHP Oliver Gonzalez from the Cardinals and RHP Michael Kopech from the White Sox in a three-team deal.

Advice: Gondalez is a 17-year-old currently pitching in the Dominican Summer League. It’s kind of surprising the Dodgers paid such a significant price for Edman in light of the wrist injury that’s kept him out all year, but if he’s right — and they obviously must believe he is — he’ll be great to have around as an option in center and at both middle infield spots. He doesn’t excel against righties, but he’s always been adequate enough against them to perform as a decent regular. Edman is currently four games into a second rehab stint, and if all goes as hoped, he could be activated within a week. With Edman gone from St. Louis, it looks like Michael Siani will spend the rest of the season as a starter. Depending on exactly how they want to line things up, James Outman or Andy Pages could be sent down by the Dodgers once Edman returns. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:46 pm

The Dodgers acquired Edman (wrist) and right-handers Michael Kopech and Oliver Gonzalez on Monday as part of a three-team deal involving the Cardinals and White Sox, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. The Cardinals acquired right-hander Erick Fedde, outfielder Tommy Pham and a player to be named or cash considerations, while the White Sox received outfielder/infielder Miguel Vargas, infielders Jeral Perez and Alexander Albertus (undisclosed) and a player to be named later or cash considerations in the deal.

Advice: Edman has resided on the Cardinals' injured list all season while he's experienced a slower-than-anticipated rehab from October surgery on his right wrist in addition to battling a sprained ankle, but he had been in the midst of a rehab assignment with Double-A Springfield and looked to be on the cusp of making his 2024 MLB debut prior to Monday's trade. Since Edman has been used exclusively as a designated hitter up to this point during his rehab assignment, he'll likely need to make at least a few starts in the field in the minors before he's formally activated from the 60-day IL for his Dodgers debut. Whenever he gets the green light to join the big club, Edman should take on a near-everyday role while providing the banged-up Dodgers with some much-needed versatility, as he's capable of playing three infield spots as well as the outfield. Given his contact skills and speed, Edman could also be an option atop the batting order while Mookie Betts (hand) is on the shelf, though he's more likely to begin his Dodgers career in the bottom half of the lineup.

Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports that the Dodgers are among the teams interested in acquiring Tommy Edman from the Cardinals.

Advice: The versatile 29-year-old has yet to make his 2024 season debut due to a wide array of injuries, but that hasn’t stopped teams from inquiring on his availability. Where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire, so expect interest in Edman to heat up in the coming days. Rotoworld Sunday, 6:13 pm
