Injuries have always been his primary obstacle; he missed 87 games with a sprained right ankle to conclude 2010, then another 51 with an injured left hand last season. Between his bumps and bruises Freese has performed admirably, with .298/.354/.429 career rates and per-162-game averages of 13 homers and 86 RBIs. Those represent his upside, and there's always a chance that injury-prone players suddenly get lucky in that department (ask Rickie Weeks and Ian Kinsler the past two years), but before you race to push Freese up your draft boards and potentially into your top 10 third basemen, understand the risk involved.","seasonId":2012,"date":"Fri Feb 10"},"playerRater30DAY":3.1,"playerRater15DAY":1.6,"positionRank":7}
