Freeman (wrist) took batting practice Wednesday for the first time since September, and completed the session without issue, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

The Braves are being cautious with Freeman in hopes of avoiding any setbacks, but it appears he's tentatively on track to be ready to go for the start of the 2016 campaign. Expect more updates on the star first baseman as he continues in his progression, with a return to game action during spring training likely providing confirmation of his status for Opening Day.
