Yankees RHP Gerrit Cole (fatigue) to skip start vs. Phillies

gerrit cole

The New York Yankees scratched right-hander Gerrit Cole from his start Tuesday night against the host Philadelphia Phillies because of what the team called general body fatigue.

Right-hander Will Warren, 25, will start instead in what will be his major league debut. The Yankees selected him from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

The 2023 American League Cy Young Award winner, Cole began this season dealing with right elbow inflammation that delayed his debut until June 19. He is 3-2 with a 5.40 ERA, 12 walks and 38 strikeouts in 35 innings over seven starts.

Cole, 33, was looking to bounce back from a poor performance. On Wednesday, he allowed eight hits and six runs in 5 2/3 innings against the visiting New York Mets. His command was shaky from the start.

“I’m frustrated — frustrated sitting in the emotions of this loss,” Cole said. “But our job is to flush it and not let the play of the last six weeks affect the way we prepare for the next game.”

Cole is 148-77 with a 3.21 ERA in 307 games (all starts) in his career with the Pittsburgh Pirates (2013-17), Houston Astros (2018-19) and Yankees.

Warren is 5-5 with a 6.11 ERA and 115 strikeouts over 95 2/3 innings in 20 starts at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season.
