Freddie Freeman is upset that the Atlanta Braves placed him on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right oblique.
The first baseman, who is hitting .417 with one homer and seven RBIs through the first five games, said team management did not tell him before making the decision.
"They didn't even give me a choice," Freeman said. "It's my career. I should be able to make that decision."
Freeman said he found out after arriving at Turner Field.
"They didn't even tell me anything," he said. "I don't know what's going on. I'm pretty [angry] right now."
