2026 Fantasy Outlook
After tossing 22.2 innings over six outings in his first MLB cup of coffee in 2024, Warren emerged as a key part of New York's rotation last season. Due partly to injuries to Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil, Warren opened the campaign in the Yankees' rotation and remained there for the entire season, compiling a 4.44 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 171:65 K:BB over 162.1 innings spanning 33 starts. Though his first full year in the majors wasn't without ups and downs, Warren led all MLB rookies in punchouts and finished eighth in AL Rookie of the Year voting. His fastball, which opponents hit just .216 against, showed plenty of promise, but Warren struggled to fool hitters with his sweeper -- opponents batted .336 with a .569 SLG against it. The key to Warren's growth is likely gaining effectiveness with his offspeed stuff and lowering his walk rate, and on most teams he'd be given plenty of opportunity to make those gains moving forward. However, it's not certain that he'll have a spot in New York's rotation throughout next season with Cole set to return, Gil long since recovered and fellow 2025 rookie Cam Schlittler setting the world on fire late last season alongside All-Star Max Fried. However, if Carlos Rodon (elbow) isn't ready for the beginning of the regular season, Warren is the obvious choice to occupy that starting slot. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year, $826,625 contract with the Yankees in March of 2026.Warren (11-6) earned the win against the Orioles in Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader, allowing three hits and no walks while striking out seven over 3.2 scoreless innings.
Analysis
Warren appeared out of the bullpen for the second time in September and dominated, throwing 39 of 54 pitches for strikes with 13 whiffs. It concluded a strong month for the 27-year-old, who went 2-0 with a 2.05 ERA and 25:8 K over five appearances (three starts). He'll finish the regular season with a 3.92 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 158:54 K across 156 innings and may work in a similar capacity to Friday for the Yankees in the postseason.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
Warren hasn't put it all together yet, but he consistently misses bats while limiting the walks enough to keep the dream of starting alive. He had a 10.32 ERA and 1.90 WHIP in 22.2 innings last year in his first taste of the majors, yet Warren's 17.3 K-BB% was better than Luis Gil's 14.8 K-BB% and in the same ballpark as Nestor Cortes (17.3 K-BB%), Clarke Schmidt (17.8 K-BB%) and Gerrit Cole (17.9 K-BB%). Warren's best offering by far is his low-80s sweeper, and that fastball/sweeper combo allowed him to log a 28.6 K-BB% against righties, but he was completely ineffective against lefties (1.9 K-BB%, 2.30 WHIP), and he'll need to improve either his changeup (12% usage) or cutter (4% usage) to successfully navigate a big-league lineup multiple times. Warren should return to Triple-A, but he could make double-digit starts in the majors as a fill-in option with a dash of breakout potential and a good reason to watch him in the spring (looking to see how he does against left-handed hitters).

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not offered for Morejon
Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports that the Yankees never included Warren in a trade offer to the Padres for Adrian Morejon, refuting a report by Bob Nightengale of USA Today that indicated San Diego rejected a deal with that framework.
Analysis
Morejon has been a reliable high-leverage reliever over the past few years for the Padres and has a 3.00 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 70:15 K:BB across 60 innings this season, but it never made much sense for the Yankees to offer up someone like Warren -- an already decent back-end starter that's under club control through 2031 -- to acquire a rental reliever. Warren has been a key rotation piece for New York this year with a 4.14 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 109:36 K:BB across 108.2 innings.
