Max Fried's Solid Start Not Enough in Loss
by Jesse Garcia | Braves Correspondent | Wed, Aug 21st 10:18pm EDT
Max Fried delivered a quality start, allowing two earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out four over seven innings in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite a commendable performance that should have positioned the Braves for a win, Fried's effort was undercut by minimal run support, leading to a no-decision. His season ERA now sits at 3.57, reflecting consistent effectiveness, though his win-loss record remains balanced at 7-7. Fried's ability to maintain a low WHIP (1.22) and a decent strikeout rate (8.32 K/9) keeps him relevant in fantasy circles, but his fantasy managers might be growing weary of the lack of wins, which often hinges on factors beyond his control.
