The Yankees<\/a> enter the 2025 MLB trade deadline<\/a> with a bullpen problem, and moves could be on the horizon, as evidenced in Friday’s 12-5 series-opening loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.<\/p>\n

Takeaways<\/p>\n

Will Warren<\/a>‘s start gave the Yankees (56-47) a chance. The right-hander allowed two runs on five hits while striking out seven and walking three in 5.2 innings pitched. Manager Aaron Boone<\/a> pulled Warren (6-5, 4.82 ERA) after 89 pitches (57 strikes) and got the sixth’s first two outs for left-handed reliever Tim Hill, who struck out Bryson Stott to end the inning, but the seventh was another story. Ultimately, Hill and those who followed unraveled — all while New York entered the final three frames with a lead, following designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton<\/a>‘s go-ahead sixth-inning home run put the Yankees up 3-2.<\/p>\n

While right-hander Luke Weaver’s high-leverage relief appearance after Hill was a disaster, first baseman Paul Goldschmidt<\/a>‘s costly seventh-inning error should not go unmentioned. With one out and runners at second and third after Weaver relieved Hill, Goldschmidt’s airmailed throw home on Nick Castellanos’ grounder allowed Trea Turner to score and tie the game at 3-3. J.T. Realmuto’s three-run home run on the second pitch of the next at-bat pushed the Phillies ahead, 6-3, and Philadelphia (59-44) never looked back despite New York’s two-run bottom half.<\/p>\n

To extend the point about the bullpen, after the Yankees’ bats chipped away to make it a 6-5 deficit, New York gave that right back. Right-hander Ian Hamilton served up Kyle Schwarber’s second home run of the evening, a three-run shot to bury the Yankees at 8-5, and the hole dug deeper in the ninth when right-hander Scott Effross allowed Edmundo Sosa’s RBI single, Stott’s two-run double and Turner’s RBI triple — all with two outs.<\/p>\n

Who’s the MVP?<\/p>\n

Schwarber, whose two home runs — tying and putting the game away — made the biggest impact.<\/p>\n
