Scouting Report: Freddie Freeman
Los Angeles Dodgers | 1B
Overall
Summary
Freddie Freeman has made a significant swing adjustment by turning his front foot inward to keep his hip in longer and stay through the ball. This mechanical tweak has paid immediate dividends after a slow start to the 2026 season. Freeman was batting .272 with 4 HR and 20 RBI through early May. He snapped a month-long home run drought with a solo shot off Chris Sale on May 8, marking his 100th career home run as a Dodger. Freeman went 4-for-11 in the Houston series with back-to-back doubles, showing improved swing decisions and better quality of contact. The adjustment appears to be working as intended, with Freeman hitting the ball to left field on the line again after struggling to do so for an extended period.
Strengths
- Successful swing adjustment showing immediate results
- Snapped month-long home run drought with quality contact against elite pitcher Chris Sale
