Notches hold in return Britton earned the hold with a perfect inning against Tampa Bay on Tuesday. He struck out one.

Impact Britton was activated from the injured list earlier in the day and was immediately put to the test in the eighth inning. He had no problem setting the Rays down in order, throwing eight of 12 pitches for strikes while lowering his season ERA to 1.80. As expected, Britton slotted back into a setup role upon his return after functioning as the closer in Aroldis Chapman's absence throughout the first half of the season.

Yanks' Britton goes on IL with left hamstring injury

Heads to IL The Yankees placed Britton (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Thursday.

Impact The Yankees are still waiting on the results of Britton's MRI before providing a timeline for his return, but the hamstring strain the lefty sustained in his appearance in Wednesday's loss to the Rays was deemed significant enough to cost him at least a week and a half of action. After going 8-for-8 in save opportunities to begin the season, Britton's fantasy stock was set to take a hit when Aroldis Chapman was activated from the COVID-19 injured list earlier this week. Britton's subsequent move to the IL now clears the way for Chapman to reclaim the closer's gig outright.

May be bound for IL Manager Aaron Boone said that Britton will undergo an MRI on Thursday after the reliever suffered a left hamstring injury in his appearance during Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Rays,...

Impact Britton entered a 2-2 contest Wednesday with two outs in the bottom of the seventh. After getting the Yankees out of the seventh unscathed, Britton came back out for the eighth and gave up two runs (one earned) to get tagged with his second loss. He tweaked his hamstring at some point during the appearance, and the fact that an MRI has been ordered up suggests a move to the injured list could be a real possibility for Britton.

Impact The veteran southpaw delivered only 13 of his 26 pitches for strikes and was grabbing at his leg before exiting the contest. Manager Aaron Boone didn't offer any specifics on the issue, saying that the team is "looking at" Britton's leg. The 32-year-old should be considered day-to-day until the Yankees update his status.

Picks up eighth save Britton allowed an unearned run and a hit and struck out three in one inning to earn the save in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Red Sox.

Impact Britton didn't help his cause much -- the one run against him scored on his own fielding error. He's accumulated eight saves, eight strikeouts and a 1.08 ERA in 8.1 innings while filling in at closer. Aroldis Chapman (illness) is set to be activated from the injured list Monday, which will likely bring Britton's time in the ninth inning to an end, but the latter figures to be an efficient setup man going forward.

Locks down save Wednesday Britton allowed just one walk in two-thirds of an inning to earn the save in Wednesday's 6-3 win over Atlanta.

Impact Reliever Jonathan Holder allowed a run during his appearance, and Britton came into the game with a three-run lead and Travis d'Arnaud on first. Britton took care of business after walking Freddie Freeman -- the closer retired Marcell Ozuna and Adam Duvall to end the danger. The 32-year-old Britton has a 1.23 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and seven saves in eight appearances this year. His strong pitching has given the Yankees no reason to rush Aroldis Chapman (illness) back. Chapman would likely take over closing duties when he returns, but Britton would remain especially valuable in fantasy formats that count holds.
