Well that escalated quickly…Sam Freeman is no longer with the Atlanta Braves, as announced by the club.
A day after getting sent to Triple-A, Freeman most likely elected free agency instead of accepting the assignment.
Freeman has had an up-and-down career with Atlanta, being one of their best relievers in 2017 but then flopped last season. This spring was similar, showing signs of returning to 2017 form during some outings, but then getting lit up for three runs and two walks in an inning in others.
He was signed on a minor league deal by Atlanta in 2017 and pitched to a strong 2.
