Max Fried Surges in AL Cy Young Race

In a Cy Young race upended by injuries, Max Fried of the Yankees has emerged as a leading AL contender. Fried, who finished fourth in last year’s voting, has led the league in innings pitched and recorded a quality start in six of eight outings. With rivals Skubal, Crochet and Brown sidelined, Fried’s reliable run‑prevention and high workload make him a prime candidate for the award. fish-roadgame.com
