Freeman (wrist) is expected to resume hitting Friday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
This progression is dependent on the results of a CT scan later in the week, but his wrist appears to still be healthy after his cast was removed less than a week ago. Things are really looking up for Freeman, as he now could return as soon as the first game following the All-Star break barring any unforeseen setbacks. The plan is for the stud slugger to return as a third baseman in order to keep Matt Adams (the current first baseman) in the lineup, which could boost his already high value should he amass enough starts at the hot corner to gain dual positional eligibility.
