Yankees place Max Fried on 15-day injured list with elbow bruise
Summary

The New York Yankees have placed pitcher Max Fried on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to August 14, due to a left elbow bone bruise. Fried's injury follows his last start against the Seattle Mariners on August 13, where he allowed five hits and one earned run in five innings. The timing is challenging for the Yankees as they deal with a growing injury list. To mitigate the loss, Carlos Rodón is set to make his first start since returning from the injured list in the series opener against the Baltimore Orioles on August 18.
