Fried (11-4) received the win Saturday at Philadelphia after allowing five runs (four earned) on seven hits across 5.1 innings. He struck out six and walked three.
EDGE Analysis
Fried's return after nearly two weeks on the injured list wasn't overly sharp, but he kept the Phillies in check after his offense supplied him with an 11-1 lead in the third inning. The 25-year-old has a 4.21 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 108:34 K:BB through 109 innings and will look to clean things up Thursday against the Reds.

Fried (finger) was activated from the 10-day injured list prior to his start Saturday against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
He missed two weeks with a blister issue but is set to resume his role in the rotation. Fried went through a bit of a rough stretch from May 28 through July 6, logging a 6.17 ERA and 1.80 WHIP over 42.1 innings in eight appearances, but he tossed five scoreless innings with five strikeouts against the Brewers in his most recent outing July 15.

Fried (blister) will start Saturday against the Phillies, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fried has been on the injured list with a blister. The Braves' original plan was to have him return Sunday, but they changed plans after realizing that he may be less susceptible to blister issues when pitching during an evening game than during the hot Sunday sun.

Fried (finger) is scheduled to throw bullpen sessions Tuesday and Thursday, and if all goes well, he'll start Sunday's game against the Phillies, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fried landed on the 10-day injured list a week ago due to a blister, but he's on track to return for Sunday's series finale if both of his side sessions go as planned. He owns a 4.08 ERA and 1.39 WHIP with a 102:31 K:BB over 103.2 innings this season.

Fried (finger) was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Fried left his start Monday against the Brewers with a blister, and the issue is evidently serious enough for him to skip his next start. Bryse Wilson was recalled in a corresponding move to start Tuesday's game, but the Braves have yet to announce who will take Fried's spot Saturday against the Nationals.

Fried was removed from Monday's game against the Brewers due to a blister on his left index finger, Kelsey Wingert of Fox Sports South reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fried was able to secure the victory after throwing five scoreless frames, but skipper Brian Snitker revealed after the contest that his southpaw had to exit the game because of a blister. Snitker did not comment on whether Fried will be able to make his next start, though his availability should become more clear in the coming days.

Fried (10-4) gave up three hits and two walks while striking out five through five scoreless innings to take the win over the Brewers on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
In the nine starts coming into this contest, the left-hander had a 3-2 record with a 5.77 ERA but delivered an excellent performance before having to exit the game with a blister on his index finger. Fried has a 4.08 ERA, an 8.9 K/9 and a 2.7 BB/9 through 19 starts this season. It is not clear at this point if Fried will be able to make his next turn in the rotation Saturday against the Nationals.

Fried (9-4) surrendered five runs on 11 hits across five innings to take the loss Saturday against the Marlins. He struck out seven and walked one.
EDGE Analysis
Fried was in pretty good shape until the fifth inning when Miami tallied three runs on four hits, all but one of which were a single. The 25-year-old has a 4.29 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 97:29 K:BB over 98.2 innings and will head into the All-Star break on a sour note.

Fried did not factor into the decision versus the Mets on Sunday, pitching five innings and allowing three runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out six.
EDGE Analysis
Fried game up three runs in his first three innings of work but held the Mets scoreless over his final two frames before being lifted for a pinch hitter in the sixth. All of the hits he allowed were singles, and Sunday marked the third straight game in which he did not yield a home run. After a rough four-start stretch in which he gave up 17 earned runs in 20.1 innings, Fried has shown improvement by allowing seven earned runs over his last 17 innings. He'll head home to face the Marlins on Saturday in his next scheduled start.

Fried (9-3) allowed two earned runs on two hits and five walks while striking out eight across six innings to earn the win Tuesday against the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Fried's eight strikeouts matched a season-best mark and were backed by an impressive 15 swinging strikes. That helped him overcome shaky control, as his five walks were also a season-high. He wasn't punished for the free passes, as he allowed only one extra-base hit -- a double to Willson Contreras that drove in both of his earned runs. Fried entered Tuesday's contest with a 6.53 ERA in June, making the effort a welcomed bounceback performance. He'll look to build off the start in his next turn, currently scheduled for Sunday at the Mets.
