    Dodgers' Freddie Freeman: Status unknown for Game 3

    20h ago

    Freeman (ankle) is receiving treatment Monday, and his availability for Tuesday's Game 3 of the NLDS against the Padres is uncertain at this time, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

    Freeman tried to play through a sprained ankle the first two games of the series, but he had to leave Game 2 early due to the issue. The team is hopeful that he'll be able to take the field for Game 3 after getting treatment, but his status will likely remain unknown until closer to first pitch.

    Dodgers' Freddie Freeman: Dealing with ankle soreness

    2d ago

    Freeman (ankle) left Sunday's contest against the Padres early with right ankle discomfort, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Freeman made his return to the lineup in Saturday's victory over San Diego in Game 1 of the NLDS after missing the final three games of the regular season with a right ankle sprain, but it appears to still be bothering the first baseman. Freeman's injury typically takes a month or more to heal completely, so it's not surprising that he's still working through it. The 35-year-old's status for Tuesday's Game 3 in San Diego is something to monitor moving forward.

    Dodgers' Freddie Freeman: Exits early Sunday

    2d ago

    Freeman (undisclosed) exited Sunday's game against the Padres in the sixth inning, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports.

    Freeman was able to return to the lineup Saturday after missing the final three games of the regular season with a right ankle injury. It's unclear if that is why he left Sunday's matchup early, but his night came to a close after he went 0-for-2 with a strikeout at the plate. Enrique Hernandez entered the lineup at third base, batting fourth, while Max Muncy shifted over to first base.

    Dodgers' Freddie Freeman: Will start in Game 1 of NLDS

    3d ago

    Freeman (ankle) is batting third and playing first base Saturday in Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the Padres.

    Freeman told reporters Friday that he'd be in the lineup for Game 1, but Dodgers manager Dave Roberts expressed uncertainty about that happening early Saturday. The situation seemed to be touch-and-go throughout the afternoon, as third baseman Max Muncy was spotted warming up with a first baseman's mitt and Freeman told reporters following his pregame routine that he wished he "had an answer" about whether he'd play, per Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times. It appears that Freeman will ultimately try to push through the injury, though he'll almost certainly be less than 100 percent and will probably be limited in what he can do on the basepaths.

    Dodgers' Freddie Freeman: Status for Game 1 uncertain

    3d ago

    Freeman (ankle) isn't certain to play in Game 1 of the NLDS, and manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that he is "not as hopeful" about the first baseman's status as he was Friday, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Freeman told reporters Friday that he intends to play in the first game of the Division Series, but Roberts' comments one day later suggest that such a scenario is far from certain. It's not clear if Freeman has suffered a setback or if he was being overly optimistic when he said he expected to play, and it's worth noting that the severity of his sprain --- which he suffered just over a week ago -- typically has a recovery period of 4-to-6 weeks. Freeman is on the Dodgers' NLDS roster, but if he's unable to play Saturday, Enrique Hernandez could get the start at first base.

    Dodgers' Freddie Freeman: Intends to play in Game 1

    4d ago

    Freeman (ankle) told reporters Friday that he will play in Game 1 of the NLDS against the Padres, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

    Freeman sprained his ankle against the Padres on Sept. 26, which cost him the last three games of the regular season. While he was told that the severity of the sprain typically takes 4-to-6 weeks of recovery, Freeman relayed that he would "try and do it in a week." The veteran first baseman went through defensive drills and ran the bases Friday, and while he didn't look 100 percent, he appears determined to play at first base in Game 1 of the NLDS. Designated hitter isn't an option with likely NL MVP Shohei Ohtani locked into that spot.
