Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman has fired his agent.
ESPN announced on the 29th (Korean time), 'According to 스포츠토토탑 a source, Freeman fired Excel Sports Management, the agency that negotiated free agents on his behalf last offseason. led negotiations with
"Last week, my family and I had a very emotional time in Atlanta," Freeman told MLB.com. "I'm talking to my old agent, Excel, about some issues. My agent is in a fluid state right now. Need If we do, we will provide you with updated news soon.”
ESPN reported that the Major League Baseball Players' Union (MLBPA) sent an email to Freeman's agency on the same day stating that he should no longer contact the player. In effect, the agent was fired.
Freeman signed a six-year, $162 토토사이트 million free agent contract last winter, leaving the Atlanta Braves to join the Dodgers. He visited Atlanta for the first time after transferring on the 25th and even showed tears in an interview with a reporter.
That means he has a lot of regrets for his home team, Atlanta. Freeman made his MLB debut in 2010 after being drafted by the Atlanta team in the second round of the 2007 draft. And he spent 12 years in the major leagues and 15 years in the minor leagues until last year. His hometown is Villa Park, California.
However, it seems that Agent Close did not properly reflect 토토 Freeman's will during the negotiations in Atlanta last winter, which led to this dismissal.
According to ESPN, Atlanta offered Freeman a five-year, $135 million offer at the end of last year just before lockout, which was turned down. After the lockout was lifted, Clos set a deadline and met with Alex Anspolos, the Atlanta club negotiator, and demanded two conditions, which Atlanta raised the terms to five years and $140 million. Clos refused because it was different from the level of demand.
The problem, however, is that immediately after that, Clos and Anspolos agreed that there were no proposals in the negotiations and closed the window. Although there is still room for renegotiation, the deadline set for pressure was actually applied. As a result, Atlanta made the Freeman move a fixed fact and signed first baseman Matt Olsen through a trade with the Oakland Athletics for eight years and $168 million. In the end, Freeman had no choice but to break up with Atlanta without having to intervene in the negotiation process and without receiving accurate information.
ESPN said of the situation at the time, "Shocked, Freeman confided in the negotiation process with close colleagues in Atlanta and complained about the agent."
Freeman's contract with the Dodgers is less favorable than Atlanta's amended offer. That's $1 million less than the average annual salary, with a $57 million future payout, and taking into account 스포츠토토 California's high state taxes, real-time pay is even lower. In the end, Clos's unilateral negotiations related to money problems were the direct cause of his dismissal.
