Max Fried can have a homecoming start in Atlanta next week, but it surely won’t be within the All-Star Game.
The Yankees left-hander pulled out of the Midsummer Classic on Friday — and was replaced by teammate Carlos Rodón — because of him starting Saturday’s game against the Cubs, which might have had him pitching on two days of rest within the All-Star Game on Tuesday.
“Just quite a lot of machinations,” said manager Aaron Boone, whose Yankees scored a dominant 11-0 victory over the Cubs on Friday night on the Stadium. “He’s obviously pitching [Saturday], so it’s a bit shorter turnaround. We’ve worked through it rather a lot over these last couple days.”
Fried will still attend the festivities in Atlanta, where he spent the primary eight years of his big league profession before signing with the Yankees.
It is feasible he’ll then start one in every of the games against the Braves next weekend at Truist Park against his old teammates, now that he won’t be throwing on Tuesday.
Boone said the choice for Fried to not pitch within the All-Star Game didn’t have much to do with any concern over his overall workload. He enters Saturday’s start with 119 innings this season, on pace to interrupt his career-high of 185 ¹/₃ innings.
“I hope he breaks that 185 this yr after which into the playoffs,” Boone said. “But definitely something we’ll be mindful of and check out to concentrate to not only Max but all of our pitchers in how they’re recovering throughout the yr.”
Boone feigned ignorance Friday when asked who with the Yankees noticed Andrés Muñoz was tipping his pitches within the ninth inning Thursday night.
“Muñoz was?” Boone deadpanned.
The Mariners realized the Yankees had a tell, with the runner at second base making a motion to the hitter when Muñoz was about to throw a slider as they rallied for 2 runs that sent the sport to extras.
“I don’t know anything about that,” Boone said with a smile.
A day after Oswald Peraza popped out on a bunt attempt within the tenth inning, he was joined by Anthony Volpe, Jorbit Vivas, Trent Grisham and Cody Bellinger on the sphere early to take bunting practice.
Austin Wells, whose left wrist went numb for just a few minutes Thursday after taking a bouncing ball off it behind the plate, had a planned time without work Friday.
He is anticipated to catch Fried on Saturday afternoon.
Boone said he assumed Marcus Stroman’s quad was OK on Friday after he tweaked it during Thursday’s start, but had not yet gotten a report on it.
Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz, the pitching prospect the Yankees got back from the Red Sox for Carlos Narváez last offseason, was promoted to Double-A Somerset on Friday.
The 21-year-old right-hander had a 2.26 ERA with 99 strikeouts in 83 ²/₃ innings and 15 games at High-A Hudson Valley.
RHP Geoff Hartlieb elected free agency Friday in lieu of accepting an outright project to Triple-A after being designated for project earlier this week.
