Zack Britton - Moved to 60-day ILThe Yankees transferred Britton (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Monday.
ImpactThe move officially ends Britton's season. It's possible he'll require surgery on his sprained left elbow, although there's been no confirmation that's the route he'll take. Britton ends this season with career worsts in innings pitched (18.1) and ERA (5.89), plus his 1.69 WHIP is his highest since 2013. A timeline for his return to full health likely depends on whether he undergoes surgery, and updates on that should come within the next few weeks.

Corey Kluber - Officially activated from ILThe Yankees reinstated Kluber (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list before his start Monday.
ImpactAs expected, Kluber comes off the IL, where he's been since the end of May, to start Monday's game against the Angels. The righty won't throw more than 65-75 pitches, although he figures to build up his workload in the last month of the regular season. He fills the 40-man roster spot of Zack Britton (elbow), who went on the 60-day IL on Monday.
