Max Fried desperate to rediscover dominant Yankees form with time running out in ‘frustrating’ season
NY Post
Max Fried’s first season with the Yankees has gone from a dream to a nightmare.
Through his first 17 starts, the left-hander had the second-best ERA in the majors, making the $218 million investment the Yankees made look like a steal.
But since then, Fried has put up a 6.80 ERA in nine outings, the fifth-worst among starters.
That downturn won’t matter if he turns his season around again as the Yankees enter the stretch run and then he pitches well in the postseason.
But the struggles have gone on long enough that Fried knows the time is now for him to get back into form.
And Friday’s start against the Red Sox would be a good time for it to happen.
