Dave Roberts Has Hilarious Roast Of Freddie Freeman

The Los Angeles Dodgers signed star first baseman Freddie Freeman to a six-year, $162 million contract this week, beating other interested teams like the Boston Red Sox and the Tampa Bay Rays.

Freeman was drafted and developed by the Atlanta Braves, who called him to the majors in 2010 and never looked back.

He played in Atlanta until last year, culminating his long stint there with a World Series championship.

The Braves didn’t want to go six years in the bidding for his services, so he ended up signing to play in LA.

He has already arrived to the Dodgers’ training camp, and he did it in class: wearing a suit.

“Dude, This Isn’t LA!”

That resulted in his new manager, Dave Roberts, cracking a funny joke about his wardrobe selection.

“Dave Roberts teased Freddie Freeman arriving to camp wearing a suit: ‘Dude, this is LA,'” MLB insider Bob Nightengale tweeted.

Of course, Freeman knows Los Angeles’ weather: after all, he was born in Fountain Valley, California.

His parents are from Canada, which is why he has dual citizenship, but he grew up on the West Coast and, oddly enough, is familiarized with the weather.

He is a stylish man, though.

Freeman will begin a new chapter in his successful career, joining the 2020 World Series champ still in his prime.

He is already 32, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t productive anymore: to the contrary, he hit 31 home runs last year, and scored 120 runs.

He was a top hitter, one of the best in the league, and carried the Braves during their postseason run.

The Dodgers sure hope he can maintain a similar performance level for the next six years.
