Fried used his athleticism to help himself out and strengthen the Yankees’ infield defense when he was on the mound, which was a point of pride for him.
A pickoff specialist — he led the AL with seven — Fried led all major league pitchers with 10 Defensive Runs Saved this season.
Before signing an eight-year, $218 million contract with the Yankees last offseason, Fried won three Gold Gloves with the Braves.
The terrific fielding came on top of posting a 2.86 ERA across 195 1/3 innings with an MLB-high 19 wins, likely putting him in the top five of AL Cy Young finishers when the award is announced in two weeks.
The only other Yankee finalist for a Gold Glove was Ryan McMahon, who was up for the third baseman award in the National League after spending the majority of the season with the Rockies.
But the five-time finalist came up short again, with the Reds’ Ke’Bryan Hayes — who was traded from the Pirates at the end of July — taking home the award.
