Guardians sub in Martínez for Freeman (oblique strain) on ALDS roster

“He said he felt a little bit of something during the machine batting practice yesterday, and then he took a live at-bat off Ben Lively, and on one swing just felt the oblique go,” Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said of Freeman before Game 2. “It happens. We just feel so much for Free. It’s been a rough couple weeks for him, and he’s been through a lot. He’s been a big part of our team’s success, been a big part of what we’ve created all year long. He’ll stay with us, but we had to make the roster move. And just really, really feel for Tyler.”
