At this point, everyone in baseball knows that free agency didn’t go all that great for Freddie Freeman, He was expected to get a deal from the Braves to stick around for his entire career before inking a deal with the Dodgers. But that deal never came, and it seemed like there was very little contact at all when the lockout ended.
There were plenty of stories around that time about the Braves front office not reaching out and trading for Matt Olson. Freddie further fueled the fire when he sort of laughed off the tears of Atlanta GM Alex Anthopoulos at his Dodgers press conference.
