Freddie Freeman Injury Update: World Series MVP shares positive news about ankle injury, eyes Spring Training return (Imagn)
Freddie Freeman dealt with an ankle sprain throughout the postseason. He missed some games, but eventually got healthy enough to play all World Series games and win MVP. He dominated on that faulty right ankle and has just undergone surgery to fix the issue for next season, the Dodgers announced on Thursday.
The slugger somehow performed at a historic level despite the injury. Normal ankle sprains don't usually require surgery; rather, they just need time to heal. However, Freeman's was bad enough that he had to have a doctor fix it. Fortunately, it was a successful operation.
