Based mostly on Thursday’s workforce exercise, nevertheless, Rojas looks as if the a lot safer guess.

After lacking the ultimate 4 video games of the common season, throughout which period he received an injection to assist ease the ache of an damage that bothered him all through the ultimate month, Rojas was a full participant in Thursday’s actions. He joined the workforce in base-running drills. He took grounders on the infield. And he performed within the workforce’s intrasquad scrimmage.

Forty-eight hours out from Sport 1, Freeman appeared like a a lot greater query mark.

The primary baseman didn’t communicate with reporters Thursday or take part in any of the workforce’s pre-scrimmage drills on the sphere. Freeman did take reside at-bats within the scrimmage however appeared to nonetheless be strolling gingerly.

Freeman additionally didn’t play within the discipline in the course of the scrimmage, with Max Muncy at first base as an alternative.
