Williams was demoted after blowing a save on Friday night with a packed Yankee Stadium chanting that they wanted Luke Weaver to close. Williams' body language was awful and his pitches lacked confidence. Yankees manager Aaron Boone said this was a temporary change.

The Yankees have pulled the plug Devin Williams closing games for them one month into his first season with the team, which Deesha Thosar believes is a good as he holds an 11.25 ERA through 10 appearances.

In place of Williams, Blake said he envisions Luke Weaver getting the majority of the save opportunities for the foreseeable future.
