Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is red-hot at the plate right now, which is good with the playoffs right around the corner. On Wednesday, Freeman went 3-for-5 with a home run, two doubles, and two RBI in the 9-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Braves offense had no issues here and made easy work of the D-Backs pitching staff. After that game, Freeman is slashing .304/.393/.519 with 31 homers, 82 RBI this season. He certainly deserves to be in the discussion for MVP after the year he has put together.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is one of the main reasons why this team is in first place in the division. The former MVP has put on a show at the plate and has been an important piece to this lineup. On Monday, Freeman went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI in the 11-4 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. It's unlikely that Freeman wins another MVP this season. However, Freeman is hitting .300/.390/.510 with 30 home runs and 80 RBI, so a solid season at the plate.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is looking like a possible MVP candidate with the way he has been hitting in the second half. On Saturday, he went 2-for-5 with two singles and two RBI in the 6-4 loss to the Miami Marlins. Sadly, the Braves blew this game late and there wasn't enough time for Freeman to rally them back. Despite that, Freeman and Austin Riley remain a force in the middle of the lineup for Atlanta.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman has been nearly impossible to slow down with the bat this season. He has been on fire in the second half and that continued on Friday. He went 2-for-4 with a double and a single in the 6-2 win over the Miami Marlins. The veteran first baseman has given new life to this offense since around late June. It'll be interesting to see how the Braves deal with his impending free agency this offseason.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman came alive with the bat during the second half of the season. The 31-year-old is slashing .292/.388/.504 with 105 runs scored, 29 home runs, 74 RBI this season. On Thursday, Freeman went 2-for-5 with a solo home run that tied the game in the eighth inning. The Braves were able to come away with the 7-6 win over the Washington Nationals in 10 innings. This marked Freeman's 30th home run of the season and it'll be interesting to see how the Braves handle his impending free agency.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman got off to a slow start to the 2021 season. Through the first two months of the year, he slashed just .235/.364/.464. However, since the start of June, he has been one of the best hitters in the majors. He posted an OPS of .868 in June, then went on to generate an obscene OPS of 1.063 in July. He's continued to stay hot in August, slashing .329/.389/.537 with four home runs, 11 RBI and 17 runs over 21 games. If the Braves can hold on to first place in the NL East, he'll have a strong case to repeat as NL MVP.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman accomplished something that he wasn't even able to do during his MVP season. On Wednesday, Freeman hit for the cycle during the 11-9 victory over the Miami Marlins. He went 4-for-5 with two RBI, and one walk as he accomplished an extremely difficult task. Over his last five games, Freeman is slashing 13-for-21 with three homers and four walks. He has put together some of the best baseball we've ever seen in a two month span. Freeman has certainly pushed himself into the MVP conversation with his incredible play.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is back to looking like an unstoppable force at the plate. He struggled there for a few days while he was battling an illness. However, his bat came alive on Monday against the Miami Marlins. He went 3-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in the 12-2 victory. Freeman is hitting 7-for-12 with two homers and three walks over his last three games. Obviously, Freeman is a must-start player in every fantasy format going forward. He is looking like an MVP candidate the way he has been playing over the last few months.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman went 2-for-5 with a home run, one RBI and a run scored in a 6-5 win over the Nationals on Sunday. It was his 25th homer of the year, as he's now slashing .290/.389/.494 with seven steals, 65 RBI and 85 runs scored over 117 games this season. He's been on a tear over the past month, as he's slashing .339/.416/.514 with six homers, three steals, 15 RBI and 28 runs scored over his last 30 games. He'll look to keep things rolling on Monday in the series opener with the Marlins.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman (illness) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Washington Nationals. He exited Saturday's game against the Nationals due to an upper respiratory infection. The 31-year-old will get a breather Sunday and is considered day-to-day. His next chance to return will be Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds. Austin Riley will shift from third to first while Ehire Adrianza replaces Freeman in the lineup and handle the hot corner on Sunday. Adrianza isn't a recommended streamer against left-hander Patrick Corbin as the 31-year-old is hitting .244 over 52 plate appearances against southpaws this season.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman (illness) left Saturday's matchup against the Nationals. Freeman is currently dealing with an upper respiratory infection, and he didn't last long before being replaced by Ehire Adrianza. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day, although it wouldn't be surprising if he weren't in the lineup on Sunday afternoon. Nonetheless, the team will get the day off on Monday, so if Freeman can't play during the series finale against Washington, hopefully, he will be ready to go on Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman has been one of the hottest hitters in the league over the last month or so. Two months ago, Freeman was batting .229, but is now batting nearly .300 after his performance on Friday. He went 3-for-4 with two RBI and a walk in the 8-4 win over the Washington Nationals. Assuming it's not obvious, Freeman needs to be starting in all fantasy formats going forward.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is looking nearing unstoppable at the plate right now. On Tuesday, he went 3-for-4 with a home run off lefty Jon Lester in the second inning. Freeman's 24th homer of the season helped the Braves claim the 6-1 win over the Cards. He is slashing .294/.396/.511 with 24 long balls and 60 RBI this season. He is red-hot at the plate and is a must-start fantasy option in DFS contests and leagues everywhere.

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman was lagging in the batting average department in the early going this year. He was hitting just .235 by the end of May and he had a .261/.368/.474 slash line when the calendar turned to July. However, he went on to have his best all-around month at the plate in July. Over 26 games last month, Freeman slashed .375/.470/.594 with six home runs, 15 RBI and 23 runs. He struck out just 13 times while walking 16 times. The 2020 National League MVP has certainly rewarded patient fantasy managers lately and he should continue to mash through the end of the year.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Patrick Sandoval had his no-hit bid broken up with one out in the ninth inning on a soft double by rookie Brent Rooker and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Minnesota Twins 2-1 on Saturday night. Sandoval, a 24-year-old lefty who began the game with a 3-13 career record, struck out a career-high 13. There have already been seven no-hitters in the majors this season. The big league record of eight was set in 1884, the first year overhand pitching was permitted. The Twins hadn’t come close to a hit until Rooker, who fanned his first three times up, flared an opposite-field fly that fell just inside the line in right. Sandoval (3-4) smiled after the ball fell, retired the next batter and then was pulled after 108 pitches. He walked one and hit two. Closer Raisel Iglesias allowed an RBI double to Josh Donaldson before getting his 21st save in 25 chances. José Berríos (7-5) allowed two unearned runs in seven innings in perhaps his final start for Minnesota. ASTROS 4, RANGERS... [More]
