Can I freeze tomatoes until I have enough to can a batch?

I have some early tomatoes that either need to be eaten or put up, but it's
not really enough to run a canning batch. I've also got tons of green ones
still on the plants. I'd like to save the early ones until the green ones
are ripe too. How about freezing the ripe ones until the others are ripe?
I know it would make them mushy when thawed, but they get all mushy when we
can them anyway. If freezing is OK, would you recommend freezing them whole
or peeling & chopping them first?
Ya'll's thoughts?

Blanch and peel first. You could also stew them and can them as a
sauce. ;-d
