The New York Yankees traded for Devin Williams from the Milwaukee Brewers this offseason, but the move has come with some early struggles for Williams.

With the Yankees leading, 2-1, Williams surrendered a leadoff hit to George Springer, then hit Andres Gimenez in the thigh with a fastball. The next batter, Alejandro Kirk, hammered a double over the head of Trent Grishman ( (to where??)) that scored both runners. That brought an end to Williams’ outing as he was replaced by Mark Leiter Jr.

The New York Yankees are rumored to be demoting closer Devin Williams. Williams has been battered so far this year.
