Yankees’ Max Fried returns to IL with bone bruise in his elbow

The Yankees have placed Fried on the 15-day injured list with a bone bruise in his left elbow.

This is the second time this season Fried has been sidelined with an elbow bruise. He missed two months from May to July with the same injury and has only made four starts since returning to the rotation.

Fried, 32, has a 2.81 ERA with 79 strikeouts in 15 starts this season. He finished fourth in American League Cy Young voting last year.
