Freddie Freeman's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman (ankle) underwent surgery on his right ankle, according to the team. This procedure will remove loose bodies from the ankle area. Freeman was a crucial part of the Dodgers' World Series run as he was named World Series MVP but played through this ankle injury in the process. However, it is a great sign to see that the 35-year-old should be expected to be ready by Spring Training following the surgery. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status during the offseason in case he faces a setback during his recovery. While he did see a slight drop in production this past summer, Freeman still posted a solid 282/.378/.476 line with 22 home runs and nine stole bases. Under the hood, he boasted an impressive .287 xBA and .367 xwOBA, which were both well above the average marks. Freeman should still be viewed as a top option at first base heading into the 2025 season.

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman was down in the count 1-2 versus Yankees starter Gerrit Cole in the fifth inning of Game 5 of the World Series on Wednesday when he singled to center, driving in two runs in what would end up being a five-run inning for the Dodgers that would tie the game 5-5. Los Angeles would ultimately go on to win 7-6, securing their eighth World Series title, and Freeman would go on to win World Series MVP. The 35-year-old finished the series 6-for-20 (.300) with home runs in each of the first four games, striking out just once and walking twice, while adding 12 RBI along the way. It was the exclamation point on another fine season for the future Hall of Famer, and with an offseason of rest, he should be able to get his hobbled ankle back to full health for the 2025 campaign.

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman went 1-for-4 with a solo shot in Game 2 of the World Series. After hitting the game-winning grand slam in Game 1, Freeman continued to showcase his power, and now holds a two-game home run streak. The 35-year-old did not go deep earlier in the playoffs and only tallied one RBI and no extra-base hits. However, in the first two games of the World Series, the infielder has brought in five runs with three extra-base hits. Freeman will be a popular pick in DFS on Monday evening when he is expected to face Clarke Schmidt who holds a 3.86 ERA during October.

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman played the hero in Game 1 of the World Series, hitting a walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the 10th to send the crowd into a frenzy and give the Dodgers a 6-3 win. Freeman demolished the first pitch he saw from lefty Nestor Cortes, who was brought in to get Freeman and Shohei Ohtani out. The 35-year-old etches his name into the history books with this moment, becoming the first player to hit a walk-off grand slam in the World Series. What makes the moment even more surreal is that Freeman is nursing an ankle injury, akin to Kirk Gibson's famous walk-off homer in the 1988 Fall Classic where he was nursing multiple leg injuries. Freeman and the Dodgers will look to get back at it in Game 2 on Saturday.

Los Angeles Dodger first baseman Freddie Freeman (ankle) is in the lineup for Game 1 of the World Series against the New York Yankees on Friday. Freeman has been nursing an ankle injury since the final week of the regular season and has missed a few postseason games, including Game 6 of the NLCS. The extra week of rest before the World Series provided Freeman with enough time to get to a point where he can play, but he likely won't be at 100%. Either way, Freeman provides the Dodgers with another excellent bat that they will need against Gerrit Cole.
