Alex Freeland - Page 2 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

On bench in Muncy's return Freeland is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact With Max Muncy (knee) returning from the 10-day injured list Monday and taking back his usual spot at third base in the series finale, Freeland will hit the bench after he had manned the hot corner in each of the previous four games while going 4-for-13 with an RBI and a 1:6 BB:K. Since utility man Tommy Edman (ankle) landed on the injured list in a corresponding move, Freeland's stay in the big leagues will be extended, though he'll now have to vie for playing time at the keystone. Miguel Rojas will start at second base Monday, but manager Dave Roberts said that Freeland will receive his first start at the position Tuesday, per David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports.

Summoned to big leagues The Dodgers selected Freeland's contract from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

Impact One of the team's top prospects, Freeland earned a promotion after slashing .253/.377/.421 with 12 home runs and 17 stolen bases at Oklahoma City. The switch hitter should see some action in the infield with Hyeseong Kim (shoulder) landing on the 10-day injured list and Tommy Edman (ankle) banged up. Freeland's stint in the majors could be short, however, as Max Muncy (knee) is due back soon.

Headed to the majors The Dodgers are set to select Freeland's contract from Triple-A Oklahoma City, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Freeland is the Dodgers' top infield prospect, and with Enrique Hernandez (elbow) and Max Muncy (knee) currently on the 10-day injured list, Freeland is slated to join the big-league roster. Freeland turns 24 next month and was a third-round pick in the 2022 Draft. He's slashing .253/.377/.421 with 12 home runs, 71 RBI, 69 runs scored and 17 stolen bases at Triple-A this season. With Tommy Edman and Hyeseong Kim struggling at the plate of late, the Dodgers are hoping Freeland can give the offense a boost.

He's slashing .253/.377/.421 with 12 home runs, 71 RBI, 69 runs scored and 17 stolen bases at Triple-A this season.

Doing it all at Triple-A Freeland is slashing .264/.379/.440 with eight home runs, 12 steals, a 15.7 percent walk rate and a 25.2 percent strikeout rate in 64 games for Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Impact Freeland hasn't been dominant (113 wRC+), but he's been pretty good across the board, particularly for an age-appropriate shortstop at the highest level of the minors. His 50.3 percent hard-hit rate is very strong and he's been a line drive machine (27.0 LD%) while using the whole field (31.3 Oppo%) and rarely chasing out of the zone (20.8 O-Swing%). Freeland isn't on the 40-man roster, but after playing 103 games at Triple-A across 2024 and 2025, he appears ready for the big leagues if the Dodgers have a need or if he's dealt to another team at this year's trade deadline.

Moved to MiLB camp The Dodgers reassigned Freeland to minor-league camp Thursday.

Impact Freeland breezed through the Dodgers' farm system last season, reaching Triple-A Oklahoma City by early August after starting the year with High-A Great Lakes. His bat stayed hot during Cactus League play, as he went 3-for-10 with a home run and three runs scored over eight games, though he also struck out six times. The 23-year-old will return to Triple-A to begin the 2025 campaign, but he's put himself in a good position to make his major-league debut at some point this year.

Moving up to Triple-A Freeland was promoted to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Freeland has produced a .245 average with 11 home runs, 35 RBI, 59 runs scored and 24 stolen bases over 74 games with Double-A Tulsa this season. He'll now look to prove himself at the Triple-A level and potentially earn an opportunity with the big-league club later this season.

AUGUST 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Mashes way to Double-A Freeland was promoted from High-A Great Lakes to Double-A Tulsa on Tuesday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Freeland played exclusively at shortstop in 2023, but he played 11 games at shortstop, and six games apiece at second and third base this year before his promotion. The 22-year-old switch hitter slashed .346/.518/.593 with two home runs, five steals and significantly more walks (27) than strikeouts (16) in 23 games for the Loons.
