With the season drawing to a close, the Yankees' bullpen struggles could significantly impact their playoff success, particularly with closer Clay Holmes having blown 13 saves.
Luke Weaver has emerged as a strong candidate for the closer role, allowing scoring in just one of his last 14 outings, showcasing impressive strikeout rates and intensity.
Tommy Kahnle is also vying for closer duties, having ascended in the bullpen's hierarchy after inconsistent performances earlier in the season.
The Yankees' strategy of a closer-by-committee will be tested as they assess which pitchers can be relied on for crucial outs in October.
