Fried, Braves go to salary arbitration for second straight year
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Pitcher Max Fried went to wage arbitration with the Atlanta Braves for the second straight 12 months, asking for $15 million as a substitute of the crew’s $13.5 million provide.
The 29-year-old left-hander went 14-7 for the second straight season and lowered his ERA to 2.48 from 3.04 in 2021. Fried was a first-time All-Star final season, was second to Miami’s Sandy Alcantara in Cy Young Award voting and was third within the National League in ERA behind Alcantara and Julio Urías with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Fried received a $6.85 million wage final 12 months as a substitute of the crew’s $6.6 million proposal in arbitration. That was after he pitched six shutout innings in World Series Game 6 because the Braves received their first title since 1995.
Fried, who’s eligible free of charge company after the 2024 World Series, had his case heard Friday by a panel that’s anticipated to concern a call Saturday.
Players have received two of three selections thus far: Pitcher Jesús Luzardo ($2.45 million) and AL batting champion Luis Arraez ($6.1 million) each beat the Miami Marlins. But Seattle defeated Diego Castillo ($2.95 million).
A call is being held for Los Angeles Angels outfielder Hunter Renfroe, whose case was argued Monday. About 20 extra circumstances are scheduled by way of Feb. 17.
