Freese came into camp "much leaner and more fit" in 2015, according to Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register Freese has never played more than 144 games in his career, but said his intention is to "play a full nine innings and 162 games" after having minor ankle surgery in the offseason. Freese has watched his power evaporate over the last two seasons, having not posted a slugging percentage over .383 in that span, but will be given full opportunity to show what he can do at third base.
