A mere week after being reported as done, the Fried signing is now official. He'll join Gerrit Cole, Carlos Rodon, Luis Gil and probably Clarke Schmidt in the Yankees rotation, though a deal involving Gil or Schmidt and opening up a spot for Marcus Stroman remains possible. Fried made 29 starts with a 3.25 ERA last season, but he did miss some time in July with forearm neuritis. In 2023, he was limited to 14 starts, mostly by a forearm strain. It's a good sign that he passed his physical, but we do still worry some about his durability going forward.
