Key Points:
- Max Fried will be activated from the 15-day injured list and start Game 2 of the Yankees' doubleheader against Pittsburgh tomorrow.
- Fried returns after a more than two-month absence due to a bone bruise in his throwing elbow, with no ligament damage reported.
- He recently completed a rehab stint, pitching three innings and 52 pitches for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last Friday.
- The Yankees initially planned one more Triple-A start for Fried but opted to bring him back for a likely shortened MLB appearance.
- With an extra pitcher allowed during doubleheaders and a day off on Thursday, the Yankees' bullpen is expected to manage the workload.
