NEW YORK (AP) Yankees reliever Adam Warren has been placed on the 10-day disabled list because of a strained back.
New York announced the move before Saturday’s game against Toronto. Right-hander Jonathan Holder was called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Warren is the 11th Yankee to go on the disabled list this season, seven shy of last year’s total. Just two of this year’s players have been activated – outfielder Aaron Hicks and pitcher CC Sabathia.
Warren allowed one earned run in 2 2/3 innings in Friday’s 8-5 loss to the Blue Jays. His 46 pitches were the most he’s thrown since July 9, 2016 at Pittsburgh.
Warren’s right ankle was bruised during the season-opening series in Toronto when he was hit by a comebacker.
