Yankees' bullpen plan for 2026 couldn't be more lost on fans after latest moves

You know what was bad last season? The New York Yankees' bullpen. Yankees relievers combined for a 4.37 ERA, which ranked 23rd in baseball. From Aug. 1 onward, after Brian Cashman "fixed" the unit by acquiring David Bednar, Camilo Doval, and Jake Bird, the new-look group put together a 4.74 ERA, ranking 26th in the MLB. In the playoffs, the 'pen put up a putrid 6.15 ERA, besting only the Cincinnati Reds.

Gone are Devin Williams and Luke Weaver. In is Rule 5 pick, Cade Winquest, and a couple of arms signed to minor league deals.
