David Freese placed on 15-day DL, Featherston gets start at third
David Freese was placed on the 15-day DL with a broken finger. Taylor Featherston will start at third base today and bat ninth.
What It Means:
Freese was producing a modest .311 wOBA and 0.12 nERD, which puts his performance above a league-average batter. The nERD drop off from to Featherston is a total of 1.16, as he has -1.04 nERD on the season. There's only 41 batters in baseball with a worse nERD than Featherston. The Angels offense clearly takes a hit with Freese's injury.
