The Yankees recalled Warren from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.
Warren owns a 9.55 ERA and 1.85 WHIP over 21.2 innings across five big-league starts this season, and it seems likely he'll be available out of the bullpen for New York during the final two games of the regular season. Cody Poteet was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Yankees' Will Warren: Sent back to minors
Rotowire
The Yankees optioned Warren to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after Saturday's game versus Pittsburgh.
Warren pitched the ninth inning of Saturday's loss, allowing three earned runs on two hits and a walk while striking out three batters. His poor outing will give him a 10.32 ERA to finish the season through 22.2 innings in the majors.
The Yankees optioned Warren to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.
Warren gave up four earned runs over four innings during his spot start Saturday, and the Yankees will waste no time sending him back to the minors. The 25-year-old righty now owns a 9.55 ERA and 1.85 WHIP through 21.2 innings across five MLB starts, and his demotion to Triple-A opens up a slot in New York's rotation for Luis Gil (back) or Clarke Schmidt (lat) to fill once one of them returns from the injured list.

Yankees' Will Warren: Allows four runs in loss
Rotowire
Warren (0-3) took the loss against the Cardinals on Saturday, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks with three strikeouts over four innings.
Warren yielded four runs in the third inning, including a three-run home run to Brendan Donovan. The rookie generated just five whiffs on 76 pitches and has now surrendered four earned runs or more in four of his five starts with the Yankees. He owns a 9.55 ERA and 1.85 WHIP through 21.2 major-league innings and will likely cede his spot in the rotation upon the return of Luis Gil (back) or Clarke Schmidt (lat).
Yankees' Will Warren: Getting another start Saturday
Rotowire
Warren is scheduled to start Saturday's game versus the Cardinals at Yankee Stadium, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Warren returned from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last week and made his fourth start of the season Saturday in the Yankees' loss to the Rockies, giving up six runs (five earned) in three innings. Though Warren owns a solid 23:6 K:BB over 17.2 innings, a .451 BABIP along with three home runs has played a large part in his bloated 9.68 ERA. Warren should enjoy better results once his BABIP normalizes, but he likely won't have much runaway in the Yankees rotation after Saturday. The Yankees could get Luis Gil (back) and/or Clarke Schmidt (lat) back from the injured list the next time a fifth starter will be needed.
Warren (0-2) took the loss against the Rockies on Saturday, allowing six runs (five earned) on seven hits and one walk with six strikeouts over three innings.
Warren allowed runs in all three frames, including a four-run third. He generated 11 swinging strikes on 76 pitches but has now surrendered four earned runs or more in three of his four major-league outings. The rookie owns an unsightly 9.68 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and 23:6 K:BB across 17.2 innings with the Yankees and tentatively lines up to face the Cardinals at home next week.
