Out of lineup for Game 6 Freeman (ankle) is not in the starting lineup for Game 6 of the NLCS against the Mets on Sunday, Noah Camras of DodgersNation.com reports.
Impact Freeman has been hampered by a high-ankle sprain throughout the postseason. He was held out for Game 4 of the NLCS, but he returned to the lineup for Game 5, and manager Dave Roberts expressed optimism Saturday that the veteran first baseman would be in the lineup for Game 6. However, Freeman will begin Sunday's game in the dugout, though he could be available to pinch hit if called upon. Max Muncy will shift over to first base while Enrique Hernandez enters the lineup at third base against Mets southpaw Sean Manaea.

Expected to play Game 6 Manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that he expects Freeman (ankle) to be in the starting lineup for Game 6 of the NLCS against the Mets, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
Impact Freeman has been playing through an ankle injury throughout the postseason. He has missed two games during the playoffs, most recently for Game 4 of the NLCS as the Dodgers wanted to prevent Freeman from playing in back-to-back games. Barring any setbacks, Freeman will be in the lineup for Game 6 as the Dodgers look to advance to the World Series.

Impact The Dodgers elected to hold Freeman out of Game 4 on Thursday so that he didn't have to play back-to-back days as he deals with a painful right ankle injury. He was, however, available off the bench and it sounds like he'll be back in there Friday as the Dodgers look to close out the series.

Absent from Game 4 lineup Freeman is not in the lineup Thursday for Game 4 of the NLCS against the Mets, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Impact Dodgers manager Dave Roberts had said previously that he expected Freeman -- who has been playing through discomfort in his right ankle -- to start every game during the NLCS. It's not clear yet whether Freeman has experienced a setback or if Roberts decided Game 4 was a good day to get the first baseman a little rest since the Mets are starting a lefty in Jose Quintana. Max Muncy is handling first base Thursday while Enrique Hernandez plays third.

Back in lineup for Game 2 Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Freeman (ankle) will be back in the lineup Monday for Game 2 of the NLCS versus the Mets, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
Impact Freeman was lifted from Game 1 after six innings, but that was simply to get him off his feet for a few frames since the Dodgers were out to a 6-0 lead at the time. The veteran first baseman is battling through a painful right ankle sprain but is expected to continue to gut it out as long as he doesn't experience a setback. Freeman reached base three times, drove in a run and scored a run in the Dodgers' Game 1 victory Sunday.
