Fried lands on IL with elbow bone bruise, Yankees optimistic about quick return
New York placed the lefty starter on the 15-day IL after an MRI showed low-level inflammation, with manager Boone framing the move as mostly precautionary.
The Yankees placed Max Fried on the 15-day injured list with an elbow bone bruise, the same diagnosis that sidelined him for two months earlier this season. Manager Aaron Boone described the move as precautionary, noting Fried is still playing catch after an MRI revealed only low-level inflammation. The team hopes the absence will be minimal, potentially just two or three starts. Carlos Rodón is ready to slot into the rotation as a replacement.
