Joe Girardi made his first full press conference of the year as pitchers and catchers reported to Tampa on Tuesday. Once again this spring, right-handed pitcher Adam Warren will be stretched out as a starter.
This is nothing new to Warren; the Yankees have stretched him out as a starter in previous spring trainings. Girardi said Tuesday, “we will build (Warren) up as a starter and see where he’s at and go from there.”
In five big league seasons, Warren has started 21 games with the majority of his work coming out of the bullpen.
