Yankees’ third baseman Ryan McMahon goes on the IL with a Grade 2 sprained thumb, but avoids surgery—thanks to a mishap trying to stretch a single into a double. Manager Aaron Boone opts for minimal time off to keep him sharp, and McMahon agrees: playing at half-strength during this critical stretch wouldn’t make sense. With a solid .218 batting average, 10 homers, and 32 RBIs in 108 games, he’s been vital—though he missed time earlier due to a throat infection. Schuemann steps in from Triple-A, but could be short-lived if Cody Bellinger returns soon from his hamstring issue—he’s already starting rehab and might be back as early as Sunday. Meanwhile, pitcher Max Fried is nearing a return after a side session tomorrow; if it goes well, he could pitch again next week. Fried’s been dealing with soreness but feels good, and despite missing significant time before, he’s posted a 2.81 ERA in 15 starts this season.
