Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman has been managing patellar tendinitis in his right knee. Initially, the injury caused him to miss a game against the Cincinnati Reds, though manager Dave Roberts indicated the team would not place him on the 10-day injured list in an effort to manage his health for the postseason.

As the injury persists, the team has continued to treat Freeman on a day-to-day basis. While the discomfort has impacted his batting performance, Freeman reported feeling no pain during a recent game against the Reds, where he recorded three hits. Despite the ongoing management of the injury, Freeman has expressed a desire to play every day to prepare for the playoffs.
