Four members of the Atlanta Braves — Freddie Freeman, Will Smith, Touki Toussaint and Pete Kozma — have all tested positive for COVID-19, manager Brian Snitker said Saturday.
Snitker said Freeman, a four-time All-Star first baseman, is still battling a fever, and it could be “a while” until he returns. Snitker that Smith and Toussaint, both relief pitchers, have been asymptomatic.
The 30-year-old Freeman batted .295 last season and set career highs with 38 homers and 121 RBIs. He had surgery in October to remove three loose bodies from his right elbow.
