Freddie Freeman, seemingly upset with free-agency process, reportedly terminates agents

Freddie Freeman has reportedly filed paperwork to terminate his relationship with his long-time agents at Excel Sports Management, saying in a statement his “representation remains a fluid situation” barely three months after he signed a six-year, $162-million contract with the Dodgers.

Earlier Tuesday afternoon, ESPN reported that Freeman was planning to change representation.

According to a person with knowledge of the situation who wasn’t authorized to speak on the record, the MLB Players Assn. sent an email to all agents asking them not to contact Freeman, a procedure that typically takes place after a player changes representation.
