The top-rated infield prospect in the Dodgers organization is getting the call to the big leagues.

According to multiple reports Monday, infielder Alex Freeland will join the Dodgers in Cincinnati from Triple-A Oklahoma City. Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic was first to report the promotion of Freeland, the Dodgers' third-round pick in the 2022 MLB Draft.

Freeland, 23, is the No. 3 overall prospect in the Dodgers' system according to MLB Pipeline.

In his first full season with the Dodgers' top farm team, Freeland is slashing .253/.377/.421 with 12 home runs, 71 runs batted in and an OPS of .799. He has 100 strikeouts in 453 plate appearances, a number balanced only somewhat by his 75 walks. Freeland also has 17 stolen bases in 23 attempts with the Comets.

According to Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times on Twitter/X, it remains to be determined if Freeland will be activated once he arrives and, if so, what the corresponding 26-man move would be.

The Dodgers would not have to make a corresponding 40-man roster move to add Freeland.
