Freeman's contract was selected by the Cubs on Saturday, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old has appeared in 56 career games, hitting just .134/.211/.201. He hit a mediocre .274/.330/.396 in 78 games for Triple-A Iowa this season. He's unlikely to be anything other than emergency middle infield depth with Addison Russell out on administrative leave.

Freeman is batting .408 through 49 Cactus League at-bats with two home runs, 10 RBI and four stolen bases.

EDGE Analysis

The 30-year-old leads the Cubs in hits this spring with 20 and has been a really pleasant surprise. Freeman likely won't make the 25-man roster to begin the year, with versatile players like Ben Zobrist and Tommy LaStella holding down reserve roles, but he's at least putting himself into the conversation in the event any spots open due to injury. Freeman will likely head to Triple-A, where he spent most of 2017 with three different organizations.

Freeman signed a minor-league contract with the Cubs that includes an invitation to spring training.

EDGE Analysis

Freeman spent the last couple months of the 2017 season with Chicago, which wound up being his third different organization in that calendar year. Although he spent most of his time in Triple-A, Freeman appeared in 35 big-league games split between the Cubs, Dodgers and Mariners, but hit just .100/.182/.183 in 60 at-bats. The utility man could serve a similar role during this upcoming season, but don't expect any sort of impact at the fantasy level.

Freeman was designated for assignment by the Cubs on Thursday, Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Freeman was ousted from the 40-man roster to clear room for Jacob Hanneman, who was claimed off waivers from the Mariners in a corresponding move. Freeman spent time with three teams in 2017, compiling an unimpressive .100/.182/.183 line in 66 plate appearances. He'll take a spin through waivers to determine his landing spot for next season.

Freeman was called up from Triple-A Iowa on Friday, Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Freeman is back in the majors for the first time since June after spending the past month with Triple-A Iowa, following a DFA from the Dodgers in late July. Since joining the Cubs' organization, the 30-year-old has slashed .273/.345/.390 with a pair of home runs and six RBI in 23 games for Iowa. Moving forward, he figures to serve as middle infield depth for the big-league club.

Freeman agreed to a minor-league contract with the Cubs on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Freeman will likely report to Triple-A Iowa where he'll serve as organizational depth. While the 30-year-old has enjoyed success in the minors this season, he is just 2-for-35 in 20 major-league games between the Dodgers and Mariners.

Freeman was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Monday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Freeman was dropped from the Dodgers' 40-man roster in order to clear room for Yu Darvish, who was acquired from the Rangers before Monday's trade deadline. Despite some solid Triple-A numbers, he has yet to find success at the major-league level, so he'll continue to serve as organizational depth wherever he ends up.

Freeman was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Freeman failed to reach base in five plate appearances for the Dodgers before being sent back to Triple-A. He's slashing a combined .057/.154/.143 in 20 games between the Mariners and Dodgers this season, so he'll head back to Oklahoma City to serve as organizational depth.

Freeman was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Franklin Gutierrez was placed on the 10-day disabled list Sunday with a back injury, so Freeman will bring his services to the major-league club. The 29-year-old was hitting .295 over 65 plate appearances with Oklahoma City this season.

Freeman was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Freeman joined the Dodgers organization at the end of May following a waiver claim, and although he only has three hits with LA's Triple-A affiliate, his positional versatility should help him fill holes in the Dodgers' lineup while their regulars are hurt. Look for the 29-year-old to fill a super-utility role off the bench during his time in the big leagues.
