After missing nine games due to an ankle sprain, Freddie Freeman reintegrated into the Dodgers lineup and had a strong performance against the Rockies. Despite being thrown out on an attempted steal, manager Dave Roberts stressed the importance of managing Freeman's health cautiously. Freeman, on the other hand, expressed confidence in his recovery, noting that he feels much better and could safely run the bases. His time on the injured list offered him a valuable perspective on his competitiveness and game readiness.
I didn't like that. He's competitive and thought he had a chance to steal a base, but we have to manage his workload and health.
I've been running the bases the last few days, and I have no reservations about hitting base. I feel as free as I possibly can be right now.
It actually was very valuable. I'm very thankful. I feel the best I've felt since I got hurt.
If there's times on my side, I'll be able to go now. I feel really good about where my ankle is.
