LOS ANGELES — Freddie Freeman is once again proving why he’s one of the most dangerous hitters in Major League Baseball. After a dominant week at the plate, the Los Angeles Dodgers’ superstar first baseman has been named National League Player of the Week, reaffirming his MVP-caliber form and anchoring the Dodgers’ offensive surge.

A Monster Week at the Plate

Freeman was nothing short of unstoppable over the past seven days. He batted a scorching .478, going 11-for-23 with 4 home runs, 10 RBIs, 2 doubles, and 7 runs scored. His power surge and consistent presence on base helped propel the Dodgers to a 5–1 record during that stretch, solidifying their place atop the NL West standings.

Key Performances That Sealed the Honor

• May 7 vs. Braves: Freeman went 3-for-4 against his former team, launching a towering home run and driving in 3 runs in a crucial 6-3 win.

• May 9 vs. Marlins: He mashed two homers in one game, showcasing his pull-side power and clutch hitting with runners in scoring position.

• May 11 vs. Padres: Freeman doubled and homered again, reaching base four times and setting the tone early in the Dodgers’ 8-4 victory.

These clutch performances came at critical moments for the Dodgers, as they faced tough divisional and interleague rivals. Freeman’s leadership—both in the clubhouse and on the field—was on full display.

Freeman’s Resurgence: MVP Buzz Begins to Build

After a somewhat quiet start to the season by his standards, Freeman is heating up at the right time. His current slash line stands at .328/.402/.572, with 8 home runs and 32 RBIs through the first six weeks of the season. He’s also among the league leaders in extra-base hits and total bases.

With Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, and Freeman firing on all cylinders, the Dodgers’ lineup is looking nearly unstoppable—and Freeman has quickly become the emotional and statistical heartbeat of the team.

Veteran Leadership Meets Explosive Production

What sets Freddie Freeman apart is not just his bat, but his mindset. Despite the pressures of playing in one of MLB’s most demanding markets, Freeman continues to deliver under the spotlight. His approach at the plate—calm, calculated, and relentless—serves as a blueprint for younger players.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts praised Freeman’s impact:

“Freddie’s work ethic and presence are unmatched. He’s not just winning games with his bat—he’s elevating the standard in our clubhouse.”

Dodgers’ Power Surge: Freeman at the Core

The Dodgers have now hit 22 home runs over the past 10 games, with Freeman contributing nearly a quarter of those. His ability to hit to all fields, combined with newfound aggression early in counts, has made him nearly impossible to pitch around.

His performance also sets the tone for a team aiming for nothing less than a World Series title in 2025.

What’s Next for Freeman and the Dodgers?

As the Dodgers gear up for a tough road trip against NL Central opponents, all eyes will be on Freeman to continue his hot streak. With his bat heating up and confidence sky-high, another weekly honor—or even a Player of the Month award—may not be far behind.
