CLIENTS FREDDIE FREEMAN
Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is among the youngest and most promising players in the major leagues. Called up to the Braves on Sept. 1, 2010, Freeman made his major league debut the very same day. In his first full season, Freeman proved to be a productive hitter and defensive asset. His 161 hits and 53 walks set the high mark for rookies in 2011, and his .996 fielding percentage placed him in the top 10 among all MLB first basemen. In addition to becoming the first Braves rookie with over 20 home runs in more than 15 years, Freeman also was the first Braves rookie to get 50 RBIs by July 18 since the legendary Hank Aaron in 1954. Named the National League Rookie of the Month in July, he was drafted by the Braves in the 2007 MLB Draft out of El Modena High School in Fountain Valley, Calif. Prior to the majors, he competed with Gwinnett (AAA), where he earned International League Rookie of the Year Honors and was rated by IL managers as the league’s best defensive first baseman.
