Freddie Freeman’s toddler son is having a better season than Jose Altuve (Video)
By John Buhler
Freddie Freeman’s son Charlie can wake up and hit .300 off the tee before nap time.
Freddie Freeman will be NL MVP, and his son Charlie will be drafted right out of high school.
Young Charlie Freeman may only be three years old, but he’s already got that sweet swing of his superstar father. Though he hits from the right side of the plate unlike his dad, it’s pretty clear he has a better idea of what to do at the plate in 2020 than Jose Altuve of the Houston Astros. With no concept of a batting average, Charlie Freeman can hit better than .219 off the tee. Just watch.

Book it: Charlie Freeman will win NL MVP in 2047, just like his dad did in 2020.
The Atlanta Braves will face the division rival Miami Marlins in Game 1 of the 2020 NLDS at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas on Tuesday afternoon. This is the first time the Braves have advanced in a postseason series since getting to the 2001 NLCS. As the higher seed, Atlanta is expected to get to the 2020 NLCS to face the top-seeded Los Angeles Dodgers or upstart San Diego Padres for the pennant.
Freeman delivered the critical base knock in the bottom of the 13th inning in Game 1 of their best-of-three NL Wild Card series vs. the Cincinnati Reds. Though players like Ronald Acuña Jr., Marcell Ozuna and Adam Duvall picked up the slack offensively in Game 2 to advance, everybody knows who the Braves’ MVP is. Freeman will win his first NL MVP on his quest for a deep October push.
The Braves do face a division rival in their best-of-five series beginning on Tuesday. Though they won the regular-season series over the Fish 6-4, keep in mind that the Marlins are 7-0 all time in postseason series. Every year up to this point that they have qualified for the postseason as a Wild Card team, they have gone on to win the World Series. Will 2020 be like 2003 or 1997?
Atlanta is hoping it’s more like 1995, the last year the Braves won the World Series. Interestingly enough, the Braves won their only title to date since leaving Milwaukee in the mid-1960s in the last MLB season that didn’t play a full 162 games. The 1995 MLB season came on the heels of the infamous 1994 MLB strike that ended in August and didn’t crown a champion.
If the Freeman men keep hitting like this, there is no stopping them or their teams at the plate.
