Yankees' Max Fried: Minimum IL stint possible
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Fried (elbow) could return from the injured list immediately after he completes the required 15-day stay, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Fried landed on the 15-day IL on Monday with a left elbow bone bruise, which is the same issue that caused him to miss more than two months earlier this season. It seems the injury is less serious this time around, with Boone indicating the IL move was precautionary. Fried played catch Tuesday and will ramp up his throwing as tolerated. It's unclear at this point whether the left-hander will make a rehab start before rejoining the Yankees' rotation.

Yankees' Max Fried: Shuffled to injured list with bone bruise
The Yankees placed Fried on the 15-day injured list Monday due to a left elbow bone bruise.
Fried last pitched Thursday, when he gave up one run on five hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings in a loss to Seattle. He had been scheduled to take the hill Wednesday in Baltimore, but the elbow issue might have cropped up during his between-starts bullpen session. The Yankees haven't provided a timeline for Fried's return, but he'll miss at least a couple of turns through the rotation before he's eligible for activation Aug. 29. Given that he was forced to the shelf earlier in the season with a similar injury and missed more than two months, Fried seems likely to be out beyond the minimum 15 days.

Yankees' Max Fried: Fans four in tough-luck loss
Fried (4-4) took the loss against the Mariners on Thursday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out four.
Other than serving up a solo home run to Weston Wilson in the second inning, Fried delivered another fine performance Thursday. It was the southpaw's third straight start of at least five innings while yielding one run or zero, a feat he's accomplished in four of his past five outings since coming off the injured list. Fried will carry a stellar 2.81 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 79:27 K:BB over 86.1 innings into his next scheduled appearance in Baltimore.

Yankees' Max Fried: Fans seven in no-decision
Fried did not factor into Friday's decision against Atlanta, allowing three hits and two walks while striking out seven across 6.1 scoreless innings.
Fried got into a bit of hot water in the first inning after allowing three Atlanta batters on base, though he managed to escape the inning unscathed. He allowed just two more baserunners over the rest of his outing, generating 14 whiffs on 90 pitches (57 strikes), though he came away with the no-decision as both teams failed to score until the eighth inning. It was Fried's first quality start since he was activated off the IL in late July, and the 32-year-old southpaw has a 2.88 ERA and 0.97 WHIP over 81.1 innings this season. His next start is lined up for next week at home against the Mariners.

Yankees' Max Fried: Strikes out seven in no-decision
Fried did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Cubs, allowing one run on two hits and one walk with seven strikeouts over 5.1 innings.
Fried allowed a run in the first inning but settled in from there, throwing 54 of 78 pitches for strikes with 12 whiffs before departing in a 1-1 tie. The southpaw has increased his workload in each of his three starts since returning from the injured list July 22, allowing four earned runs over 13.1 innings during that stretch while posting a healthy 18:4 K:BB. He'll take a 3.12 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 68:23 K:BB across 75 innings this season into a home matchup with Atlanta next weekend.

Yankees' Max Fried: Labors through three innings
Fried allowed three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four batters over three innings in a no-decision against the White Sox on Monday.
Fried remained on a limited pitch count in his second game back from an over-two-month injury absence, so his 32-pitch first inning was far from ideal. The left-hander gave up all three of the runs he allowed in that first frame, though he allowed at least one baserunner in each of the other two innings in which he appeared. Fortunately for Fried, New York's offense got going after his departure to take him off the hook for a loss. Overall, Fried threw 66 pitches -- nine more than the amount he hurled in his return to action last Wednesday -- and he'll likely to continue to build up over his next couple starts until he's fully ramped back up. He's lined up to make his next appearance at Wrigley Field against the Cubs.

Yankees' Max Fried: Sharp in return to mound
Fried didn't factor into the decision in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader split with the Pirates, allowing one hit and one walk over five scoreless innings. He struck out seven.
While the southpaw got lifted after just 57 pitches (37 strikes) in his first start since May 13, Fried looked to be fully recovered from a bone bruise in his pitching elbow. Over 66.2 innings this season, Fried sports a 2.97 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 57:20 K:BB, and his return might give the Yankees the luxury of not having to add a starting pitcher at the trade deadline. Fried should get stretched out a little more in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road early next week against the White Sox.

Yankees' Max Fried: Activated ahead of start
The Yankees reinstated Fried (elbow) from the injured list for his start against the Pirates in Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader.
Fried has been on the injured list since mid-May due to a bone bruise in his left elbow. He was originally scheduled to make a second rehab start Wednesday, but the Yankees will bring him back to the rotation early to start the final game of the twin bill. The 32-year-old southpaw was expected to throw about 60 pitches in his rehab start, so New York will likely place a similar ceiling on his pitch count as he makes his first MLB start in over two months. Kervin Castro was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Yankees' Max Fried: Expected to return Wednesday
Fried (elbow) is expected to be reinstated from the 15-day injured list and start Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Pirates, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Fried was set to make a second rehab start Wednesday, and he was expected to throw 60 pitches in the outing according to manager Aaron Boone. The southpaw will instead return to a major-league mound for the first time since suffering a left elbow bone bruise in mid-May. Fried has posted an impressive 3.21 ERA and 1.01 WHIP with 50 strikeouts over 61.2 innings in 10 starts this season, so he'll be a welcomed addition to fantasy rotations, though it may take a few outings for him to work up to his regular workload.

Yankees' Max Fried: Expected back next week
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday on the "Talkin' Yanks" podcast by Jomboy Media that he expects Fried (elbow) to return from the injured list early next week against the White Sox.
Fried will make his second rehab start Wednesday and is slated to throw 60 pitches. As long as he bounces back well, he'll rejoin the Yankees' rotation as soon as next Monday. The left-hander has been sidelined since mid-May because of a bone bruise in his left elbow.

Yankees' Max Fried: Will make at least two rehab starts
Manager Aaron Boone said Friday that Fried (elbow) will make at least two rehab starts before a decision will be made on his activation from the 15-day injured list, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Fried's first rehab start is Friday, and he'll be limited to around 50 pitches. He'll then make another start next week before the Yankees determine if the left-hander is ready to return to the rotation. Fried hasn't pitched since May 13 due to a bone bruise in his left elbow. Prior to going down, Fried posted a 3.21 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 50:19 K:BB across 61.2 innings this season.

Yankees' Max Fried: Could begin rehab assignment Friday
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Fried (elbow) threw a successful live batting practice session Saturday and is "likely" to pitch in a rehab game as soon as next Friday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Per MLB.com, Fried reported to Double-A Somerset to throw his live session Saturday and tossed 44 pitches over three simulated innings. He'll presumably throw a bullpen session in the next day or two before the Yankees assign him to an affiliate to kick off a rehab assignment. Assuming he's able to build on his 44-pitch workload from Saturday, Fried may need just one or two rehab appearances before slotting back into the New York rotation. The veteran southpaw has been on the shelf since May 16 due to a bone bruise in his left elbow.
