Freddie Freeman, Dodgers Reportedly Finalizing 6-Year, $162M Contract

Freddie Freeman will reportedly chase another championship on a different team.

After helping lead the Atlanta Braves to the 2021 World Series title, the first baseman and the Los Angeles Dodgers have agreed to terms on a six-year, $162 million contract, per Kiley McDaniel and Jeff Passan of ESPN.

There was a time when Freeman joining any other team could be classified as surprising considering Bob Nightengale of USA Today reported in November ahead of the winter meetings he "couldn't find a soul who believes Freeman won't be returning to Atlanta.
