Yankees consider moving Ryan Weathers to bullpen for 2027 season

The New York Yankees are weighing the option of moving Ryan Weathers to the bullpen for the 2027 season. Weathers has been a solid starter, making 25 regular-season appearances in 2026 with a 3.60 ERA and 143 strikeouts. The team currently has a surplus of starter options, including Cam Schlittler, Gerrit Cole, Max Fried, Carlos Rodon, and Will Warren. There are concerns about whether making Weathers a permanent reliever would be wise given his previous workload. Decisions regarding the 2027 roster will unfold as the offseason progresses.
