Max Fried to Begin Rehab Assignment as Yankees Await Rotation Reinforcements
The left-hander will make his first rehab start after going 4-3 with a 3.21 ERA in 10 starts before getting hurt.
- On Friday, July 17, New York Yankees left-hander Max Fried commenced an MLB rehab assignment with the Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders at PNC Field, throwing on a pitch count "in the low 50s" against the Worcester Red Sox.
- Fried has been sidelined since May 13 with a left elbow bone bruise, which interrupted his second season with the Yankees; before the injury, the left-hander posted a 4-3 record with a 3.21 ERA over 10 starts and 61.2 innings.
- Because the Yankees are currently "thin" on rotation depth, the team has relied on Gerrit Cole, Ryan Weathers, Cam Schlittler, and Will Warren, while left-hander Carlos Rodón remains sidelined with left elbow inflammation.
- Manager Aaron Boone said the team will reassess Fried's status next week; provided the recovery goes well, the left-hander is scheduled to make at least one more rehab start in five days.
- The Yankees aim to have a healthy rotation as they move toward their goal to "win the East or bust," and getting Fried back into the mix is critical for maintaining position in the American League East.
