10/01/24 MLB pitchers threw fewer complete games but dominated batters this year. There were a record-low 26 complete games in the major leagues this season — four fewer than Catfish Hunter threw in 1975 — and the big league batting average dropped to .243, among the five-lowest figures since 1900. The complete game total was fewer than even the 29 in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. Philadelphia's Cristopher Sánchez, Atlanta's Max Fried and Toronto's Kevin Gausman were the only pitchers with two complete games.

Max Fried's Gem Keeps Braves' Playoff Hopes Alive in Potential Last Start at Truist Park If Friday's start was the last of Fried's career at Truist Park, then it was one to remember. With the Atlanta Braves needing a win to keep their playoff hopes alive, Fried, a free agent after the season, was nearly perfect.

9/28/24 Braves win 3-0 behind Max Fried and Sean Murphy, but Royals still get to celebrate. Max Fried pitched three-hit ball over 8 2/3 innings and the Atlanta Braves beat Kansas City 3-0, but the Royals still got to celebrate their first postseason berth since 2015 when Minnesota lost to Baltimore 7-2. The Braves are looking to make the playoffs for the seventh year in a row, and they got a big boost from Fried. He came within one out of a complete game before giving way to Raisel Iglesias, who earned his 33rd save. Sean Murphy hit a two-run homer and Marcell Ozuna trotted home on a throwing error after his first stolen base since 2022. The Braves now hold a National League wild-card spot after the Mets and Diamondbacks both lost.

9/23/24 Rangers All-Star to enter free agency, deal with Braves makes sense. The Atlanta Braves could be among the best teams in baseball once again in 2025. Injuries certainly hurt the 2024 season, but the Braves will get some important pieces back before 2025 and should shine once again. It will be an interesting offseason that should be full of moves for the Braves. Atlanta may need to add a new pitcher if ace Max Fried decides to leave.

9/05/24 Braves' Max Fried Receives Surprising Title From MLB.com. No matter what happens the rest of his career, Max Fried should be remembered as the pitcher who started Game 6. Game 6 in Houston, which was the victory that knocked out the Astros and gave the Atlanta Braves their first World Series title in 26 years.

9/04/24 Braves could be in running for former Cy Young after strong 2024 season. The Atlanta Braves have dealt with various injuries this season and have also lost the top spot in the National League East. Left-hander Max Fried is a free agent and the two sides have not been able to work out an extension. As of now, it appears that Fried will test free agency, meaning it's possible that he'll be in a different uniform next year. Zach Rymer of Bleacher Report listed the Braves as a potential destination for Baltimore Orioles right-hander Corbin Burnes.

8/31/24 Here's how much Braves ace Max Fried is projected to earn in new contract. Will the Atlanta Braves be able to keep ace Max Fried beyond the 2024 season?

8/30/24 Braves hurler's 'emergence' could lessen sting of losing ace to free agency. The Atlanta Braves are in danger of losing two of their starting pitchers this offseason. Ace Max Fried and Charlie Morton are both upcoming free agents, and there's no guarantee that Atlanta will be able to retain either arm, as other suitors will certainly come calling. Luckily for the Braves, they've witnessed the rise of a young starting pitcher this year who could grow into a No. 2 man for Atlanta alongside Cy Young favorite Chris Sale.

This offseason, they could be in the market for starting pitching help, and Tim Kelly of Bleacher Report listed them as a potential fit for Atlanta Braves left-hander Max Fried.
