Max Fried Stumbles Against Nationals
by Jesse Garcia | Braves Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 7:57am EDT
Max Fried allowed four earned runs on 11 hits and zero walks while striking out six over six innings in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact:
This outing marks a slight deviation from his otherwise solid season, where he maintained a 3.46 ERA and a 1.22 WHIP across 26 starts. The high hit count in this game could be seen as a blip rather than a trend, given his stable metrics throughout the season, including a reasonable .292 BABIP. However, fantasy managers might feel a pinch as this performance doesn't help in critical categories like ERA and WHIP, especially during the fantasy playoffs. Moving forward, Fried's ability to rebound in his subsequent starts will be crucial for those relying on him as a stable arm in their rotation.
