IL15

Whether he'll start the first game or second game hasn't been determined, but Fried is set to rejoin the active roster after missing the minimum 15 days due to a bone bruise in his elbow. The left-hander didn't make a rehab start, instead opting for a four-inning live batting practice session Monday. However, since Fried threw 88 pitches in a start just two weeks ago, he should be prepared for a relatively normal workload Saturday.
