Freddie Freeman calls it "truly an honor" to sign an eight-year, $135 million contract extension with the Atlanta Braves.
Freeman says Frank Wren told him he should "be the player that I already am."
The contract covers three arbitration-eligible seasons for the 24-year-old and five years in which he could have become a free agent.
