Max Fried dazzled on Tuesday, tossing a complete game shutout against the Marlins, allowing just three hits and striking out six in a 5-0 Braves win.

Fantasy Impact

This standout performance marks a significant turnaround for Fried from his earlier season struggles. The lefty's ability to command the zone, evidenced by zero walks in this outing, coupled with a more effective strikeout rate, suggests potential for improved consistency moving forward. Fantasy managers should take note of this performance as a possible sign of Fried returning to form.

Max Fried struggled through five innings against the Astros on Wednesday.

He allowed three earned runs on seven hits and four walks while striking out just two. Despite the Braves clinching a narrow 5-4 victory, Fried's performance did little to reassure fantasy managers. His ERA remains high at 7.71, and with a WHIP of 1.96 across four starts this season, his reliability in fantasy lineups is becoming increasingly questionable.

Max Fried delivered a solid performance, allowing just one earned run on four hits and one walk while striking out four over 6 1/3 innings in Friday's 8-1 victory over the Marlins.

This outing was a breath of fresh air for fantasy managers after a troubling start to the season, marked by a bloated 8.74 ERA and 1.85 WHIP over his first three starts. The left-hander will look to continue to shake off his early-season struggles on the mound as he will now lead an Atlanta rotation that will be without ace Spencer Strider for the remainder of the season for manager Brian Snitker.

Max Fried's latest outing was less than stellar, as he struggled mightily on the mound against the Diamondbacks Saturday.

Fantasy Impact

Fried lasted just 4 1/3 innings while surrendering seven runs on eight hits, allowing one walk and striking out five in a disappointing performance. The 30-year-old has gotten off to a slow start on the mound, allowing three or more runs and failing to reach the fifth inning in both starts. The left-handed hurler will look to put his early-season struggles behind as the likely replacement for injured ace Spencer Strider at the top of the Atlanta rotation for manager Brian Snitker moving forward.

Max Fried is scheduled to make his first Grapefruit League debut on Monday against the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact

Fried reportedly entered camp the "healthiest he has been" after dealing with injuries last season. He'll be looking to bounce back with a healthy season this year.
