Braves southpaw Max Fried was scratched from Friday's Grapefruit League start due to a "potential exposure" with someone who had COVID-19. (David O'Brien on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Fried is negative but the team is going to play it safe for a few days. The lefty is coming off a season in which he went 7-0 with a 2.25 ERA and finished fifth in the National League Cy Young voting. This is unlikely to impact his availability for Opening Day.
