Atlanta first baseman Freddie Freeman says he feels fine despite an early spring training injury, and Braves fans hope that last season's Rookie of the Year runner-up is back on track. Freeman, who will be counted on as a big part of the Braves' offense this year, suffered a partially dislocated right kneecap during a fielding drill on Feb. 28.
"My knee feels great now," Freeman told the Atlanta Journal Constitution, insisting that he's ready to move on and start playing baseball. Freeman hit .282 in his rookie year, with 21 home runs and 76 RBIs in 157 games, a season that saw him barely losing out to teammate Craig Kimbrel for NL Rookie of the Year.
