The New York Yankees placed left-handed starting pitcher Max Fried on the 15-day injured list on Friday, after an MRI exam and CT scan revealed a left elbow bone bruise.
After getting off to a brilliant start in 2026, Fried (4-3, 3.21 ERA) struggled in May, allowing 11 earned runs and 17 hits in 14 1/3 innings over three starts. He left Wednesday's start in Baltimore after only three innings, permitting three earned runs in 61 pitches.
Fried, 32, was 4-1 with a 2.09 ERA through seven starts (47 1/3 IP) in March and April.
After spending eight years with the Atlanta Braves (2017-24), Fried signed an eight-year, $218 million contract with the Yankees prior to the 2025 campaign. He made his third All-Star team with New York, posing a 19-5 record with a 2.86 ERA in 32 starts.
Fried is 96-44 in 210 appearances (194 starts) with a 3.04 ERA in 10 major league seasons.
There is no timetable for Fried's return. He is slated to undergo repeat imagining in a few weeks or when asymptomatic to determine when he can resume throwing.
As of Friday afternoon, the Yankees have not announced a corresponding move.
