  1. From the Yankees:

    LHP Max Fried underwent an MRI and CT scan on Thursday that was followed up by an examination with Yankees Team Physician, Dr. Chris Ahmad. He will be placed on the 15-day I.L. after initial findings revealed a left elbow bone bruise. Dr. Neal ElAttrache will also review Thursday’s imaging.

    Repeat imaging will again be taken in a few weeks (or when asymptomatic) to further determine when Fried can resume throwing. A more specific return and rehab schedule will be determined at that time.

    1. Guess they should’ve. Not that Jazz would’ve scared me but McMahon scares me less.

    1. And we have a backup catcher who Boone said has the talent to be a “top 10 or 15” catcher in Major League Baseball on both sides of the ball if he were given the opportunity to play regularly.

    1. He should never pitch in non-save situations. He clearly doesn’t focus unless it’s a save situation. It’s very annoying. That said, the inning was never THAT close. There were two outs when the hits started coming.

    2. Within 1 run OPS 800. Within 2-4 around 670. OTOH high leverage 664, medium 1042, low 530..

    1. Probably his season is over, and he’s a FA too.

      EDIT: He has a player option for 2027, $12 million. So he’s got that.

  2. Just Baseball: Only 2 pitchers in MLB history have achieved the following in their first 10 starts of a season:

    – 9 or fewer ER
    – 65+ K’s
    – 11 or fewer Walks

    2021 Jacob deGrom. 2026 Cam Schlittler 🤯

  3. A clean sweep
    Cam Schlittler 2026 AL ranks

    W 6 (T-1st)
    ERA 1.35 (1st)
    K 68 (2nd)
    BAA .168 (1st)
    OBP .209 (1st)
    SLG .234 (1st)
    OPS .443 (1st)
    K% 30.1 (3rd)
    K/BB 6.18 (2nd)
    HR/9 0.30 (4th)
    fWAR 2.5 (1st)

    But he’s no Alan Winans.
