Freddie Freeman's Wrist Issue Rattles Dodgers | MLB News

from MLB Baseball News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Freddie Freeman’s 15-game hitting streak hit a snag when he was yanked from the Dodgers’ game against the Cubs after a check swing, visibly grimacing at his wrist — now sidelined by an unclear injury, replaced by Kiké Hernández. With the team down six runs and battling a five-game skid, manager Dave Roberts’ move sparked questions, especially since it wasn’t just a strategic substitution. Freeman’s stellar season (.310 AVG) and recent clutch single kept him in the spotlight, while the team’s upcoming day off may offer him crucial recovery time. The Dodgers’ fight to turn things around hinges on Freeman’s health — and how serious this wrist issue really is.
