The New York Yankees have made a significant move in their pitching rotation by signing left-handed pitcher Max Fried to a record-breaking contract. Fried, who played a crucial role in the Atlanta Braves' World Series victory in 2021, agreed to an eight-year deal worth $218 million with the Yankees.
This contract makes Fried the highest-paid left-handed pitcher in baseball history, surpassing David Price's previous record deal with the Boston Red Sox. The agreement is pending a successful physical examination.
