Freeman is not in the lineup Friday against the Mets.
Freeman started the past 45 games and posted a .308/.376/.505 slash line with seven homers, 19 RBI and 38 runs during that stretch. and he'll head to the bench Friday for a well-deserved day off after Atlanta clinched the NL East division title Thursday. Austin Riley will shift to first base while Ehire Adrianza starts at the hot corner.
