Freeman to the DL a strong possibility per Bowman.

Time to sell.

The #Braves haven't made an official decision about Freeman, but it sounds like there's a strong possibility he'll be placed on the DL.

If Freeman is indeed placed on the DL, Joey Terdoslavich would fill his roster spot.

Shame. Freddie is such a boss.

[Braves1976]

BTW, am I the only one here annoyed Fredi allowed Freeman to keep playing after knowing he was hurt? Fredi said he knew and told him he could only play if it didn't get worse. That was stupid IMO, Freeman should have been taken out a game and checked out better early on not after it got worse. Why do we keep doing crap like this? I know it's usually with pitchers but how Mac was handled here a few times and even Gattis last year being rushed back, etc. It's like they never learn from the same mistakes.

[cajunrevenge]

Well we lost Heyward, the Uptons, Kimbrel, and Gattis and got better. So far we are undefeated without Freddie.

[Braves1976]

It looks like we posted this about the same time, can a mod just merge the two?

Sorry Heyward I didn't know you were posting it at the min I started my thread.

It's all good, three people posted a same tweet at the same time in the Touki thread.

No biggie.

[NinersSBChamps]

Retroactive to the first game he missed though. Rest him until after the break.

[Braves1976]

If Freeman does hit the DL as expected I'd give Joey T a shot at starting some games at first.

[nsacpi]

Losing Fredito even for a few days would be a big loss. But Joey T can get the job done.

[sturg33]

I would guess Perez will play LF and KJ will remain at 1B

Good thing we don't need any power hitters though... no big loss

For those 9f you that want the Braves to sell this is probably a good thing. Rest up Freddie. You are the m9st important player for the franchise.

I think we'll see a healthy dose of CJ at 1B.

[Braves1976]

Let it shine, let it shine. Let that Fredi love shine!

Eww.

[The Chosen One]

What reason is there to believe Bowman is on to something?

I know, right? Just because Freddie didn't go on the plane doesn't necessarily mean anything. We'll find out for sure tomorrow.

Eww.

As good an excuse as any to see if he can play himself into tradeability.
