Yankees pitcher Will Warren has shown remarkable improvement after a challenging start to his rookie season. Initially struggling with a 5.63 ERA in April, his performance in May reflects a sharp turnaround with a 2.38 ERA over four starts, including a standout outing of 5.2 scoreless innings. With enhanced control and confidence, his strikeouts have increased dramatically, positioning him among the top American League pitchers in strikeouts per nine innings. Team captain Aaron Judge highlights Warren's growing significance to the Yankees, indicating his potential impact moving forward.
In just four starts in May, his ERA and WHIP this month are 2.38 and 1.15. In 22 innings, just two fewer innings in two fewer starts, Warren has struck out 34 batters, walked just six, surrendered 20 hits, and lowered his overall ERA to 4.05.
Warren said when he was asked if he feels differently compared to the start of the season. 'It's just like I talk about, the execution, just sticking with our plan and trusting that I'm here for a reason.'
Over his last three starts, he's tossed 18 innings, fanned 26 batters, and has pitched to a 1.50 ERA and 0.88 WHIP.
He's gonna be a big piece for us down the road, said Yankees' captain Aaron Judge. 'He's a big piece for us right now.'
