More Matt Adams news. Freeman should be back in the Braves lineup in about three weeks, and then Adams will be riding the pine again. Or not. Freeman played third base in high school, and volunteered to take it up again so that Adams (who as we know can basically play first and only first) can stay at that position and they'll both be in the lineup. I guess the Braves thought about it for about a microsecond before they agreed to give it a try.
Freeman must be a special kind of player to switch positions like that for the good of the team, even though he's their number one guy. And Adams has turned into a home run hitting machine since escaping the clutches of Matheny. It being his idea just makes it that much better.
