News summary

The New York Yankees have decided to shift Marcus Stroman to a bullpen role as they aim to solidify their pitching rotation with two weeks left in the regular season. Manager Aaron Boone confirmed that Stroman will be available out of the bullpen starting Sunday, following a series of disappointing performances that have seen his ERA rise to 5.57 over his last four starts. The Yankees will revert to a five-man rotation, which includes Gerrit Cole, Nestor Cortes, and others, as they evaluate Stroman's role moving forward. While Boone emphasized that this decision is not permanent, it does highlight the Yankees' depth in starting pitching and the tough choices they face. Stroman, who has a 4.07 ERA in 28 starts this season, has been effective earlier in the season but has struggled recently, prompting this adjustment in his role. The Yankees will continue to assess Stroman's performance in the bullpen as they prepare for potential playoff implications.
