Yankees shuffle rotation after Fried lands on IL as Cole rehab proceeds
Max Fried was placed on the 15-day IL with a left-elbow bone bruise, delaying the anticipated Cole–Fried top-of-rotation duo; Elmer Rodríguez will take Fried’s next turn while Cole continues his rehab in the minors and isn’t expected back until after a couple more rehab starts. MLB's new ABS rules are drawing attention for changing approaches, and the Subway Series chatter persists as Juan Soto’s move to the Mets continues to shape the narrative.
