Max Fried said it's still too soon to know if he'll pitch against the #Braves next weekend, but his blister is moving in the "right direction" and "getting better."

New York Yankees starting pitcher Max Fried looked at his left hand and spotted the blister forming on his index finger as he walked off the mound.

He tossed eight shutout innings — the longest start by a Cub this season — in a 5-2 victory while striking out six and not walking a batter.
