Max Fried delivered a masterclass on the mound Friday, tossing 8 2/3 scoreless innings while allowing just three hits and two walks, striking out nine in a 3-0 victory over the Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance is a testament to Fried's ability to dominate when he's on his game, lowering his ERA to a solid 3.25 and improving his season record to 11-10. His WHIP stands at a solid 1.16, with a K/9 rate of 8.6, reflecting his consistent ability to manage games effectively. Given his strong outing, Fried's fantasy stock remains high as a reliable starter, especially in leagues valuing strikeouts and ERA. His ability to maintain a low BABIP (.283) suggests some skill in limiting hard contact, which should reassure fantasy managers relying on him for stable, quality starts.
