Max Fried Loses Arbitration Case
2 years agoAtlanta Braves starting pitcher Max Fried lost his salary arbitration case against the team on Saturday, according to sources. Fried will make $13.5 million in 2023 instead of the $15 he requested. The 29-year-old left-hander still has two more arbitration-eligible seasons before he reaches free agency. He was a first-time All-Star in 2022, when he went 14-7 with a 2.48 ERA (2.70 FIP), 1.01 WHIP and 23.2 percent strikeout rate in 30 starts covering a career-high 185 1/3 innings pitched. Fried finished second in the National League Cy Young voting last year and has become one of the best left-handed starting pitchers in the game. He'll make a very strong second fantasy starter in 2023.
