Max Fried has been a star this season, and last night he reached a new milestone: a career-best 111 pitches over 6 2/3 innings, helping the New York Yankees to their 7-5 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.

The latter came when Boone tried to squeeze one extra out from Fried after he walked catcher Nick Fortes. Though a cheer went up from the Stadium crowd after Boone seemingly went to pull Fried but left him in the game, Taylor Walls’ double allowed Fortes to score from first.

The New York Yankees reportedly shopped the former MVP in trade talks amid fears that Aaron Judge was lost for the season.

The New York Yankees are without their star after Aaron Judge suffered a flexor strain that landed him on the 10-day injured list.

The New York Yankees are seemingly in the race to acquire star closer Ryan Helsley from the St. Louis Cardinals in the coming days.

The New York Yankees struggled recently, but they still do not figure to be sellers. However, the injury to Aaron Judge could lead to them making some shocking moves.
