"Clay Holmes faced significant scrutiny as the Yankees' closer this season, predominantly due to inconsistency, highlighted by a disastrous mid-season performance that saw him leading the league in blown saves."
"Despite a strong start to the season, where Holmes maintained an impressive ERA below 2.00, the familiar pattern of decline resurfaced, ultimately prompting manager Aaron Boone to reconsider his role."
"Holmes' status as a closer, which was met with high expectations given the Yankees' history, became untenable after a series of poor performances and critical moments, notably in June and July."
