Max Fried struggles, Braves still triumph

by Chris Schommer | Braves Correspondent | Sun, Aug 11th 10:28am EDT

Max Fried had a rough outing, allowing four earned runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out nine over five innings in Saturday's 11-8 win over the Rockies.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite the Braves pulling off a victory, Fried's performance was less than stellar, marking a slight hiccup in what has been a solid season. His ERA ticked up to 3.56, and while his nine strikeouts were impressive, the hits and walks he allowed this game could be concerning for fantasy managers relying on his usually steadier hand. Moving forward, Fried's ability to bounce back in his next starts will be crucial for those counting on him as a reliable starter in their fantasy rotations. His season-long metrics like a 1.24 WHIP and 8.5 K/9 still suggest he has the tools to overcome this blip, but consistency will be key.
