New York could not complete a sweep as Will Warren opened with six runs in the first inning, stalling the offense’s rally against Chicago’s bullpen. They still took three of four from contenders, and now shift to Minnesota for a pivotal road trip. The Twins series kicks off a final stretch that will influence postseason positioning, with questions about Warren’s postseason role and late-inning options for the bullpen looming large.

The focus shifts to Target Field as fantasy managers parse bullpen usage and lineups for a strong closing run. Watch Garrett Crochet and Aroldis Chapman for late-inning leverage, and gauge how Warren’s early-season control trades off with the Yankees’ need for depth and stability in October.
