The Los Angeles Dodgers ’ ace, Freddie Freeman, is one of their key players who had a defining moment last year, securing the World Series MVP award. But 2025 had other plans for him. As soon as the baseball season began, he complained of a minor injury around his ankle, which caused him to miss at least 10 days. However, the situation worsened for him, as he has now been placed on the injury list for at least 10 days. The Dodgers haven’t announced who will replace Freeman for the upcoming games.

However, this is not Freddie Freeman’s first injury in his baseball career. He couldn’t play two games in Japan, right before this season, citing pain around his ribs, an issue he dealt with during the World Series.
The same ankle injury was a worry for the Los Angeles Dodgers last year as well, however, Freeman managed to play despite the pain that was undergoing around his sprained ankle and broken rib cage. He managed to score home runs in four games of the World Series.
Earlier, the Los Angeles Dodgers’ manager Dave Roberts had said:
“Freeman might be ready to play this week and for the upcoming series against the Phillies. However, with this new injury, Freeman won’t be back until at least April 10. That also means he’ll miss next week’s games against the Washington Nationals—and the Dodgers’ planned visit to the White House.”
