Is Max Fried better than Jacob deGrom? Maybe not but he’s been a better pitcher over the last three games, where deGrom has allowed 11 runs in his last 16 innings (0-2, 6.60 ERA). The Braves are one of the few teams he hasn’t dominated this season, allowing five runs in 12.1 innings against them. Fried has been spectacular in the second half. He’s 6-5 with a 2.84 ERA in 15 starts against the Mets.
