NEW YORK — So far this season, the sight of Devin Williams speaking to reporters postgame in the Yankees ’ clubhouse has a follow-up to poor performances from the right-hander out of the bullpen. There was his shaky, 36-pitch inning against his old team on Opening Day. He had disasters in Detroit and Tampa, along with a walk-off loss in Pittsburgh.

Devin Williams lost his job as Yankees closer after stumbling repeatedly during his first 10 games with New York.

Former Milwaukee Brewers closer Devin Williams has been removed from the same ninth-inning role by New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone. Boone announced the move prior to the game against Toronto April 27, two days after Williams failed to record an out in a loss to the Blue Jays.
