The New York Yankees shouldn’t be confused about what to do with Will Warren this postseason … right? Warren’s ugly outing on Sunday at Fenway Park — 10 hits and six earned runs in five innings — all but eliminated him from New York’s list of potential playoff starters. Both Luis Gil and Cam Schlittler are more deserving of a postseason start than Warren, and the universal assumption about Warren is that he’ll be moved to the bullpen once the regular season ends.
However, the Yankees might be opening up a different can of problems by turning Warren into a reliever.
