TAMPA \u2014 As he moves up the depth chart this spring training, each outing has high stakes for Will Warren.<\/p>\n
On Monday, the 25-year-old was tested in what he termed a \u201cgritty\u201d outing against a Tigers lineup made up mostly by regulars at Steinbrenner Field \u2014 the first six batters being major leaguers.<\/p>\n
Warren allowed two hits and two runs (one earned) though only struck out one across 3 \u00b2\/\u2083 innings in a 10-2 win.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot a lot of strikes and didn\u2019t attack early,\u201d said Warren, who threw 33 of his 57 pitches for strikes. \u201cBut overall, I think it\u2019s nice to get one of those out of the way. Compete a little bit. I don\u2019t even know if I had a strikeout today. Probably not. But, yeah, just attacking the zone even if I\u2019m behind in the count shows where I\u2019m at and I\u2019m just trying to minimize the damage.\u201d<\/p>\n
The rookie \u2014 after getting roughed up in spot duty last season \u2014 has found himself in the running to make the rotation as injuries have sidelined Luis Gil and Gerrit Cole, who has decided to undergo Tommy John surgery after meeting with Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles on Monday.<\/p>\n
In four spring outings, Warren has pitched to a 1.54 ERA in 11 \u00b2\/\u2083 innings.<\/p>\n
Warren, who is on the 40-man roster, is considered the front-runner for the final rotation spot, with Marcus Stroman ticketed to be the No. 4 starter. <\/p>\n
Veteran Carlos Carrasco, journeyman Allan Winans and prospects Sean Boyle and Cam Schlittler could also be in the mix for the fifth spot.<\/p>\n
Despite an outing not at his best, Aaron Boone is \u201creally excited\u201d about where Warren is at.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought even today was just another good day when I don\u2019t even think he was necessarily at his best, and that\u2019s important, too,\u201d Boone said. \u201cI just think he made big strides. He\u2019s put himself right smack in the middle of the conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n
The pressure hasn\u2019t gotten to the young pitcher, and he declared he is ready for the job and \u201ccame into camp thinking that, too.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing\u2019s changed mentally,\u201d Warren said. \u201cThe opportunity has now presented itself, unfortunately, because of the circumstances. But, yeah, I came into camp knowing I need to go earn a spot and take a spot. So, I haven\u2019t changed my mindset on that. You gotta do what you\u2019re supposed to do. Go out and show them who Will Warren is.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
