Freddie Freeman has been a pivotal point to the Los Angeles Dodgers since signing with the team on a six-year, $162 million deal with the team in 2022.

Freeman began his career with the Atlanta Braves, playing his first 12 seasons in the majors with them from 2010 to 2021. He compiled 271 home runs, 941 RBI, while having an impressive .295 batting average for the Braves in the 1565 games he played for them.

He earned an NL MVP in 2020, a World Series title in 2021, and was selected to five All-Star teams in his stint in Atlanta, but he decided to sign with the Dodgers in 2022 and take his talents to his home state to further his career.

Freeman has continued his success in LA, helping the Dodgers to a World Series win in 2024 and winning the World Series MVP after knocking off the New York Yankees last October.

While the Dodgers look like a championship-contending team once again in 2025, they've been battling injuries all season all throughout the team's lineup.

Freeman happened to be the latest player to come up on the injury report in the Dodgers' 6-4 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday.

After getting hit by a pitch on his left wrist in an at-bat on Sunday, Freeman exited the game early and was replaced by Hyeseong Kim.

The Dodgers' All-Star first baseman underwent X-rays on his left wrist, which fortunately came back negative. Manager Dave Roberts said Freeman is considered "day-to-day" as Los Angeles looks to snap out of a July slump, currently riding a 5-10 record this month.

Dave Roberts said x-rays were negative on Freddie Freeman. “Day to day category,” Roberts said.
