Wednesday was a wild day for transactions around the league, but we start with the last bit of news of the day as the biggest. That would be Freddie Freeman, one of the two or three biggest free agents on the market for this winter. The former Braves first baseman wasn’t going to return to Atlanta after they traded for Athletics star Matt Olson, and it turns out he’s heading west. Freeman reportedly agreed to a six-year deal worth $162 million on Wednesday night.
Freeman is, simply put, one of the very best hitters in all of baseball and gives yet another star to a Dodgers lineup that is filled with them.
