It’s now or never on a contract extension for Max Fried.
The Atlanta Braves have done a good job at ensuring long-term control of their major league roster, with almost every single defensive position locked up for multiple seasons in the future.
The pitching staff is another story, with only Spencer Strider having signed a long-term contract extension with the Braves.
Is Max Fried the next to put pen to paper?
The ace lefty, who just turned 30 on January 18th, has one year of team control remaining before free agency. He’s set to make $15M this season after reaching an agreement at the arbitration deadline with Atlanta.
Per reports from Fan Fest last weekend, Fried’s focused on the upcoming season rather than his contract, letting his agent handle things behind closed doors.
