Freeman suffered a right ankle injury trying to avoid a tag, while Rojas re-injured his troublesome left adductor. Both injuries raised concerns ahead of the NLDS.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts expressed optimism about Freeman and Rojas being in the Game 1 lineup, stating, 'I don’t see any reason both those guys don’t get in.'
If Freeman or Rojas can't start, decisions loom for the postseason lineup, with Max Muncy likely stepping in at first base and Tommy Edman at shortstop.
Roberts indicated the injury issue could be short-term, saying 'Max would then work out during this bye week at first base,' emphasizing the team's hope for a quick turnaround.
