The Yankees optioned Warren to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.
Warren gave up four earned runs over four innings during his spot start Saturday, and the Yankees will waste no time sending him back to the minors. The 25-year-old righty now owns a 9.55 ERA and 1.85 WHIP through 21.2 innings across five MLB starts, and his demotion to Triple-A opens up a slot in New York's rotation for Luis Gil (back) or Clarke Schmidt (lat) to fill once one of them returns from the injured list.

Yankees' Will Warren: Allows four runs in loss
Rotowire
Warren (0-3) took the loss against the Cardinals on Saturday, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks with three strikeouts over four innings.
Warren yielded four runs in the third inning, including a three-run home run to Brendan Donovan. The rookie generated just five whiffs on 76 pitches and has now surrendered four earned runs or more in four of his five starts with the Yankees. He owns a 9.55 ERA and 1.85 WHIP through 21.2 major-league innings and will likely cede his spot in the rotation upon the return of Luis Gil (back) or Clarke Schmidt (lat).
Yankees' Will Warren: Getting another start Saturday
Rotowire
Warren is scheduled to start Saturday's game versus the Cardinals at Yankee Stadium, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Warren returned from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last week and made his fourth start of the season Saturday in the Yankees' loss to the Rockies, giving up six runs (five earned) in three innings. Though Warren owns a solid 23:6 K:BB over 17.2 innings, a .451 BABIP along with three home runs has played a large part in his bloated 9.68 ERA. Warren should enjoy better results once his BABIP normalizes, but he likely won't have much runaway in the Yankees rotation after Saturday. The Yankees could get Luis Gil (back) and/or Clarke Schmidt (lat) back from the injured list the next time a fifth starter will be needed.
Warren (0-2) took the loss against the Rockies on Saturday, allowing six runs (five earned) on seven hits and one walk with six strikeouts over three innings.
Warren allowed runs in all three frames, including a four-run third. He generated 11 swinging strikes on 76 pitches but has now surrendered four earned runs or more in three of his four major-league outings. The rookie owns an unsightly 9.68 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and 23:6 K:BB across 17.2 innings with the Yankees and tentatively lines up to face the Cardinals at home next week.

Rotowire
Warren will start Saturday's game against the Rockies at Yankee Stadium, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Warren was called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday to take Luis Gil's (back) spot on the active roster, and he'll now slot into Gil's spot in the rotation this weekend. In three big-league starts this season, Warren has an 8.59 ERA with a 17:5 K:BB, though those numbers are skewed heavily by an eight-run start against the Angels on Aug. 7.
The Yankees recalled Warren from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.
He's taking the roster spot vacated by Luis Gil (back), who was placed on the 15-day injured list. Warren also seems likely to replace Gil in the rotation, although it's unclear when he might make a start. The rookie right-hander has not pitched since being optioned last Thursday, so he should be available to start at any time. Warren holds an 8.59 ERA and 17:5 K:BB over 14.2 innings covering three starts for the Yankees this season.
The Yankees optioned Warren to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
Warren turned in a solid spot start in Wednesday's 10-2 win over the White Sox, taking a no-decision while allowing two runs over five frames. He'll rejoin the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre rotation and would likely be the first hurler called upon when/if the Yankees need another starter.

Yankees' Will Warren: Does fine in spot start
Rotowire
Warren allowed two runs on seven hits and struck out five without walking a batter over five innings in a no-decision versus the White Sox on Wednesday.
Warren exited with the Yankees down 2-1, but they rallied for nine runs between the seventh and eighth innings. This was the best of Warren's three appearances in the majors this season. He's allowed 14 runs over 14.2 innings while posting a 17:5 K:BB. The 25-year-old is expected to be sent back to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in the near future since this was likely just a spot start to build in some rest for the Yankees' other starters.

Rotowire
Warren will be recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to start Wednesday's game against the White Sox, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.
Although Warren was lit up for eight earned runs in just 4.1 innings during his second MLB start against the Angels last Wednesday before being returned to Triple-A, the Yankees will turn to him again to get them through the series finale. In addition to his poor big-league performance, the 25-year-old righty owns a 6.11 ERA and 1.41 WHIP through 95.2 innings in Triple-A. He will have the benefit of facing the worst offense in the majors, but he is still not a recommended streaming option. The Yankees are likely to send Warren back to Triple-A following Wednesday's contest.

Warren will work as the Yankees' 27th man Wednesday, and he'll most likely be sent back to Triple-A after making his start in the nightcap. The 25-year-old righty surrendered four earned runs in 5.1 innings during his only other start in the majors this season, and he owns a 6.11 ERA across 20 starts in the minors.
