Max Fried News: Roughed up in 13th win

Fried (13-5) earned the win Saturday despite allowing seven runs on eight hits and a walk over five-plus innings in a 12-8 victory over St. Louis. He struck out six.

The southpaw's first win in August came in rocky fashion as he surrendered homers to Masyn Winn and Nolan Gorman. Fried is mired in a rough stretch, carrying a 6.80 ERA and 1.59 WHIP across 41 innings over his past eight starts dating back to the beginning of July. Despite his recent skid, Fried has still delivered an impressive debut season in New York, logging 149 innings with a 3.26 ERA and 1.12 WHIP over 25 starts.
