View Draft Report
Freeman has a solid track record of hitting at UNC and has started to show more power this spring, but he lacks impact tools across the board and moved from shortstop to third base during the middle of the season. With a 5-foot-10, 200-pound frame, Freeman is unlikely to develop more power, and while he’s walked more than he’s struck out this spring, scouts are concerned that his approach won’t be as effective at the next level because he frequently chases breaking balls and expands the strike zone. Freeman is a solid defender, though he lacks the quick-twitch mobility to stick at shortstop and likely doesn’t profile offensively at third base, leaving him as an in-between, utility profile who should go at some point on day three.
