Freeman, along with teammates Craig Kimbrel and Jason Heyward didn’t agree to deals before the deadline for unsigned arbitration-eligible players to do so or swap salary-arbitration figures with their team. The hearings will be scheduled between Feb. 1-21 in St. Petersburg, Fla.

Freeman could make nearly $5 million next season.
