## Summary

Yankees pitcher Max Fried has had surgery to remove a bone spur from his left elbow after a season disrupted by elbow problems. General manager Brian Cashman said the procedure should not affect Fried’s readiness for spring training, although uncertainty over a possible lockout means the start of the 2027 season is unclear.

Fried must rest and recover for six weeks, then is expected to resume throwing around the second week of December. He missed more than two months with an elbow bone bruise and spent another two weeks on the injured list in August, but recorded a 2.80 ERA in 20 starts and 112⅔ innings. Cashman also said Aaron Judge is recovering well without further procedures, and confirmed several Yankees coaches will return next season.
