Damn it Freddie

[u/Possible-Society-628 → u/jordpie]

Right?! Keep that shit up and I may not stand for your ovation next time you play in Atlanta.

[u/Pauliehatestheadmins]

Like a knife in my heart Freddie :(

[u/cmgriffith_]

Death, taxes and Freddie Freeman being a menace in the postseason

[u/BobbyRayBands → u/cmgriffith_]

I remember when it was a fun experience...

[u/lost_jedi → u/cmgriffith_]

Can’t spell October without Freddie.

7 pm games during summers at dodger stadium slap

[u/Clockwork_Wings → u/toomuchredditing]

7pm in cali, in general

[u/123qweasd123 → u/Clockwork_Wings]

by 7pm up here in San Fransisco its like 53 degrees in August

I'm all about noon games in the bay

[u/deathinmidjuly → u/toomuchredditing]

Also becuase its only 94° now

[u/Eagle7546_ → u/Fantastic_Art_9582]

People give california a hard time because of how much hype it gets, but it easily lives up to that hype.

[u/RhombusOfTerror636 → u/Eagle7546_]

40 million people live there for a reason

[u/tyler-86 → u/RhombusOfTerror636]

Yeah, it reminds me of that Yogi Berra quote about how nobody goes there anymore because it's too crowded.

It's like how people argue California isn't a desirable place to live because it's too expensive. Why do they think it's so expensive?

[u/valoossb → u/tyler-86]

that is actually interesting. by definition can desirability account for price?

[u/tyler-86 → u/valoossb]

There are some other factors but in a generally free market, there's absolutely a relationship between demand and price.

[u/rented4823 → u/Eagle7546_]

California kicks so much ass, just sucks how expensive it is and how far away I live. Spiritually I belong in the Central coast

[u/WhoDatBrow → u/Eagle7546_]

No hate in saying this I promise, but I used to be one of those people who idealized California and always wanted to live there. And then I was moving and actually went out to LA to live there and saw it's not really all it's made out to be. From the perspective of a normal, not rich person anyway. I don't think it's some shithole or anything like a conservative would say, but idk it was just another place in almost every way. Good weather but I live in Arizona so I'm used to the same kind of weather, even if hotter.

[u/Quople → u/Fantastic_Art_9582]

Dodger stadium is one of my favorite parks specifically because the view from behind homeplate out to center is unmatched whether there’s a sunset or not. It’s amazing

[u/worthwords → u/Quople]

This guy knows ball.

[u/cencal → u/Fantastic_Art_9582]

That’s what I thought… super whiplash so happy about the hit then struck by the pink moment in the backdrop.

[u/BigBangBoomerang → u/Fantastic_Art_9582]

You just have to sit through 38 C weather to enjoy it.

[u/toomuchredditing → u/BigBangBoomerang]

what the fuck is C, why are you not using freedom units

[u/BigBangBoomerang → u/toomuchredditing]

I apologise.

That's about 310 Kelvins.

[u/DominicB547 → u/BigBangBoomerang]

that looks cold

[u/lost_jedi → u/toomuchredditing]

Probably one of those Canadians I’ve heard rumors about.

[u/eddiengambino]

1 home run in the last 66 regular season games, now 1 home run in 2 postseason games

[u/Crossifix → u/eddiengambino]

Playoff Freddy goes hard.

[u/brandont04 → u/eddiengambino]

You rather have 60+ HR in the regular season, and go cold in the playoffs? I'm not naming name.

[u/Gbrusse → u/brandont04]

Hey

[u/Fun-Series-4091]

Freddie Freeman is a Rolls Royce of a player, might not be at his physical peak but he's still Freddie Freeman

[u/MrRightnow83 → u/Fun-Series-4091]

Hall of famer fs

[u/someone2795]

Braves on Braves violence.

[u/mathgix]

MILF man I love Freddie

[u/Gregorwhat → u/mathgix]

Took that cocker spaniel out of the yard!!!

[u/ArrivalRadiant7460]

Threw him 9 cutters in a row, same exact spot.

[u/Jux_]

Only his second homer since the ASG, maybe thst dugout fall is finally behind him

[u/HeavensRoyalty → u/Jux_]

Typical playoff Freddie Freeman

[u/Arftacular → u/Jux_]

Can’t believe he wasn’t more banged up from that. That fall looked full of sharp, bone breaking corners.

[u/DominicB547 → u/Jux_]

he said 2 days ago he feels good.

[u/werther595]

Never start a land war with Russia in winter, and never assume Freddie is cold in the playoffs

[u/PMUrTinyTitsAssFeet0]

Someone post that stat again of how Freeman only has 1 HR in his last 20 games or something lmao

[u/DominicB547 → u/PMUrTinyTitsAssFeet0]

someone above said 66 another said since the ASG

[u/realfakejames]

BUILD THE STATUE

[u/TheFriffin3 → u/realfakejames]

PUT THE LA ON THE HOF PLAQUE

[u/JaDonYoutube]

Didn't I just see a post detailing his lack of home run production?

[u/Fit-Property3774 → u/JaDonYoutube]

Probably, he’s had like 3 homers since the start of July

[u/ChiefSoldierFrog]

Max Muncy, Kike and Freddie all these fuckers take it up a few notches during the playoffs

[u/OnlyForBaseball → u/ChiefSoldierFrog]

I mean Muncy was the best hitting 3B in the NL this season, this is mostly just who he is

[u/Purples_A_Fruit]

Well this is awkward….

[u/TheReal-MrSully617]

The comments in here are about to be so toxic

[u/Llovio_cuatro_anos → u/TheReal-MrSully617]

why do you think that

[u/fawkesmulder → u/TheReal-MrSully617]

I don’t think most braves fans hate Freddie. Seemed like he wanted to return and then they signed Olson instead. I remember Freddie was extremely upset with his agent and with the braves, there was some sort of miscommunication during the bargaining.

[u/thoughtsofmadness → u/fawkesmulder]

Yeah it was very messy. There was the claim his agent hid the Braves final offer, then the legal threats from said agent, then the retraction, then Freddie parting ways from the agent in question. Whole thing was FUBAR.

[u/MangoHotDamn → u/fawkesmulder]

And acuna hated him

[u/brandont04 → u/MangoHotDamn]

That's bc Freedie held him accountable. Freedie is all professional.

[u/MangoHotDamn → u/brandont04]

And I think Freddie did a lil harmless hazing to him too

[u/OnlyForBaseball → u/MangoHotDamn]

“Lil harmles hazing”

Aw Freddie’s just a smol bean, he wouldn’t do anything like that 👉👈

[u/MangoHotDamn → u/OnlyForBaseball]

Yea I think he strapped his balls to a pair of goat horns and lit them on fire. Nothing too crazy

[u/DominicB547 → u/MangoHotDamn]

legit though b/c Freddie is one of those good ol boys like Madduz and Miggy Ro who set standards and haze the young guys.

[u/Pauliehatestheadmins → u/fawkesmulder]

Freddie was the heart of that team, I can never hate him at all..his agent I can very much hate him

[u/Crisscross4767 → u/fawkesmulder]

I do.

[u/Pauliehatestheadmins → u/Crisscross4767]

I’m not having a good time right now

[u/teewertz → u/TheReal-MrSully617]

Do Braves fans seriously hate Freddie like that?

[u/NoirLamia777 → u/teewertz]

Nope not at all.

[u/teewertz → u/NoirLamia777]

Okay good, I mean look at that smile

[u/hodlum101 → u/teewertz]

Freddie got a standing ovation first time he went back to Truist Park.

[u/KidGold]

Freddie good, Holmes bad. Easy math.

[u/doublegoldendragon]

PLAYOFF FREDDIE HAS ARRIVED

Love you Freddie, but not for the Dodgers man.

God, anyone not named Chris Sale on the Atlanta pitching staff sucks.

Fair, everyone else except Kerr and Sale.

[u/YaketyMax]

Braves didn't think he deserved a 6th year by the way 😂

[u/GamerLife204 → u/YaketyMax]

I have enough of this take. I really do hope he goes into the hof as a Dodger.

[u/lovemesomefood]

BEST TEETH IN THE GAME!

[u/dropperofpipebombs]

I want them to win, but the Braves deserve to lose this series based solely on the fact that they ever let Freddie go to LA in the first place.

[u/PackOfBraves83_95_21 → u/dropperofpipebombs]

Rough take. For starters. Matt Olson!
And secondly, see nuance of Freddie’s agent being the actual reason for him not being in ATL.

[u/YaketyMax → u/PackOfBraves83_95_21]

And secondly, see nuance of Freddie’s agent being the actual reason for him not being in ATL.

Doug Gottlieb made that up. He immediately issued an apology and retraction when threatened with a lawsuit.

[u/PackOfBraves83_95_21 → u/YaketyMax]

Braves went and got Olson bc they were misled by the agent. It has nothing to do with what Gottlieb said. The agent played too much hardball and Freddie got screwed. Braves GM wasn’t gonna be caught holding the bag if Freddie left so he got proactive.

[u/YaketyMax → u/PackOfBraves83_95_21]

Braves were not misled. Freddie wanted a 6th year. If the Braves just gave Freddie the 6th year like he deserved than he'd be a Brave right now. I'm happy they did not. 😀

https://giphy.com/gifs/e2jlfGwmDlq4UsJ74e

[u/Think4Yoself → u/YaketyMax]

We know that Freddie knew about the Braves offer because the agent threatened to sue Gottlieb who retracted the story and we know that Freddie fired his agent based on how things were handled. It seems to me that either the agent didn't tell Freddie that the Braves had a deadline or that he rejected the offer from the Braves without Freddie's permission. I don't see any other way it could have played out.

[u/YaketyMax → u/Think4Yoself]

I don't see any other way it could have played out.

Another way it could have played out: Braves could have just given their MVP cornerstone franchise player the 6th year he deserved.

[u/409yeager → u/dropperofpipebombs]

I mean are we really still acting like Matt Olson hasn’t been just as good these past five years?

[u/dropperofpipebombs → u/409yeager]

Matt Olson hasn't spent the last five years teabagging my team a dozen times a year like Freddie has.

[u/GamerLife204 → u/dropperofpipebombs]

Funny thing is if freeman was still a Brave Dodgers might have gotten olson instead. They were gonna get a first basemen anyway 

[u/18khcl → u/GamerLife204]

I don’t know about that, Max Muncy was their 1B for years until Freddie goes to LA

[u/brandont04 → u/409yeager]

Yeah, but Freedie hit 2 walk off in the WS. Kinda hard to top this.

[u/409yeager → u/brandont04]

Also impossible to foresee that when you’re negotiating a contract, so it’s a non-factor.

The Braves replaced Freddie perfectly. The Dodgers have had a better team and Freddie has made the most of the big spots he’s seen in the World Series.

Both are true.

[u/brandont04 → u/409yeager]

But if the Brave signed him, they took away a MVP on the Dodgers roster which probably means they never won any WS.

Instead, the Dodgers got 3 MVPs on their roster n going for a three peat.

[u/409yeager → u/brandont04]

If the Braves sign him, the Dodgers probably just go get Matt Olson themselves.

It’s a wash.

[u/brandont04 → u/409yeager]

Matt Olsen isn't hitting WS walk off.

[u/409yeager → u/brandont04]

Lol if he was on the Dodgers and Freddie stayed on the Braves he very well could have and you’d be having this same discussion about Freddie not being good enough.

Hilarious how you bots reduce career value to one or two postseason moments.

[u/evanphilipsburneracc → u/409yeager]

How many walk off homers in the world series does olson have? 🤔

[u/409yeager → u/evanphilipsburneracc]

Yeah great point front offices these days are expected to have perfect situational postseason foresight when negotiating contracts.

[u/Callsign_Psycopath → u/dropperofpipebombs]

It was a combination of the Lockout and Freddie's agent.

[u/btw94]

100+ in October!? Fuck me that's rough

[u/Richmahogonysmell → u/Fun-Series-4091]

Yeah it was 103 when the game started at 5pm local. It’s now 7 and is around 95

[u/OkGene2 → u/JustRelax]

Because they expect to be up 10-1
