Who represents:
Freddie Freeman arrived at Camelback Ranch just before 8 a.m. local time, sporting a tailored suit and a smile reminiscent of a kid getting ready for his first day of school.
As he walked into the Dodgers’ facility for the first time, he was greeted by president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman and manager Dave Roberts.
Agent Casey:
His teammates welcomed him into the clubhouse, but not before playfully joking with him about his choice to wear a suit.
But as the day went on, Freeman sported a much more appropriate look. Friedman handed the first baseman a white Dodgers jersey with his trademark No. 5 and his last name. It became official. Freddie Freeman will be a Dodger for the next six seasons.
Who is:
After celebrating a World Series title with the Braves last October, Freeman had almost no doubts. He was entering the winter as a free agent for the first time in his career. Despite not being able to agree on a contract extension with Atlanta, Freeman, like most people in baseball, nearly assumed that he would eventually find a way to sign a free-agent deal to stay there.
Freeman was the face of the franchise. He had been part of the Braves’ organization for 15 years, 12 of them in the Majors. Until Friday, it was the only organization Freeman had ever known.
Agent:
Nobody in the industry could’ve imagined that his last image in a Braves uniform would be him catching the last out of the World Series and raising both his arms up in the air.
But as communication lacked between Freeman and the Braves over the course of the offseason, the Dodgers began to lurk. Friedman made a call to Freeman’s representatives. Friedman and Roberts jumped on an hour-long Zoom call shortly after.
