Yankees right-hander Will Warren is scheduled to help in the bullpen in a “piggyback” role for Friday night, after posting what multiple reports describe as his best start of the season. The move shifts him from a starting workload into a late-game relief setup for the specific outing.
The coverage notes that Warren’s role change is tied to his recent performance and the Yankees’ plan for that game, rather than a permanent change to his season-long role. Both outlets frame the decision as temporary for Friday’s matchup, with Warren coming out of the rotation-style approach to pitch in support of the bullpen group.
