David Freese

David Freese will sit out Wednesday for Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh Pirates third baseman David Freese is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers.

What It Means:

Freese started the last three games in a row at third base, so manager Clint Hurdle probably wants to get his veteran third baseman a day off. Josh Harrison is moving over to play third base tonight, while Adam Frazier is at second base.

Our models project Freese for a .271 batting average, with 3 home runs, 16 RBI, and 17 runs scored over 153 plate appearances remaining this season.
