Fried will start Wednesday in Game 2 of the National League Wild Card Series against the Padres, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Atlanta is going with AJ Smith-Shawver in Game 1 before turning to Fried on regular rest for Game 2. The veteran left-hander closed out his regular season in fine fashion, collecting a 2.14 ERA with a 36:7 K:BB over 33.2 innings in five September outings. Fried will be opposed by Joe Musgrove in Game 2.
