Yankees' Luke Weaver: Gets five outs for save
Weaver struck out three over 1.2 perfect innings to earn the save in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Athletics.
Clay Holmes struggled in the eighth inning, but Weaver was able to escape without trouble. Weaver then stayed in for the ninth to close out the contest and earn his fourth save, all of which have come over his last seven appearances. Weaver is now at a 2.93 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 101:26 K:BB over 83 innings this season, and he continues to pitch in the highest-leverage moments.

Yankees' Luke Weaver: Grabs third save
Weaver allowed an unearned run on one hit and struck out three over one inning to earn the save in Friday's 4-2 extra-inning win over the Athletics.
Weaver was able to protect a three-run lead despite yielding a run on JJ Bleday's RBI single. This was just the third time in 19 outings since the start of August that Weaver has been scored on, and he gave up multiple runs in each of the other two instances. He's up to three saves and 23 holds this year while maintaining a 2.99 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 98:26 K:BB over 81.1 innings. Weaver has thrived in his second stint as a reliever, and while he's not the official closer for the Yankees just yet, he appears to be the team's top high-leverage arm.

Yankees' Luke Weaver: Not anointed closer just yet
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that while Weaver could close out "a lot" of games, the skipper stopped short of naming the right-hander his closer, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.
Boone noted that he wouldn't hesitate to use Weaver earlier in the game if the situation calls for it. Weaver has notched two saves since Clay Holmes was demoted from the closer role and boasts a dominant 16:3 K:BB over 7.1 scoreless innings during that time. However, while Weaver might be the favorite to lead the Yankees in saves down the stretch, it doesn't sound like Boone is eager to have defined roles in the back end of his bullpen.

Yankees' Luke Weaver: Snags sixth win
Weaver (6-3) picked up the win in an extra-inning battle against the Mariners on Wednesday, allowing one walk over 1.2 scoreless innings while striking out four.
Weaver relieved Clay Holmes with one out in the bottom of the eighth after the latter surrendered a solo home run to Justin Turner to tie the game at 1-1. The 31-year-old Deland native then got the next two batters to go down on strikes before adding another two strikeouts in the ninth. The win was Weaver's sixth on the campaign, and he's now logged multiple strikeouts in five-consecutive appearances. He sports a 2.16 ERA in September to go along with a dominant 17:3 K:BB.

Yankees' Luke Weaver: Earns two-inning save
Weaver allowed one hit over two scoreless innings Friday. He struck out five and earned a save against the Red Sox.
Weaver gave up a single in the eighth inning but had little trouble closing out the 5-4 victory. He allowed two runs in a Sep. 2 appearance but has since struck out 12 over 5.2 scoreless frames while earning a win, two saves and a hold during that span. Weaver now owns a 3.09 ERA with a 91:25 K:BB over 78.2 innings. With Clay Holmes seemingly out of the ninth-inning picture, Weaver should be expected to see more save opportunities down the stretch.

Yankees' Luke Weaver: Nabs first career save
Weaver worked around a walk in a scoreless ninth inning against the Cubs on Friday en route to his first career save. He struck out two batters.
Isaac Paredes made Weaver work for the final out, but Weaver ultimately shut the door on his 25th pitch to earn the first save of his nine-year MLB career. Manager Aaron Boone said earlier in the week that the club would get "creative" with the closer role in light of Clay Holmes' struggles in the ninth inning, and while Weaver has not been part of the saves mix until now, he leads the team in holds and would appear to have the leg up for save chances down the stretch.

Yankees' Luke Weaver: Chance for saves
Weaver could be a candidate to receive save chances after Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that the team will get "creative" with the closer role going forward, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
Clay Holmes blew his 11th save of the season Tuesday, prompting the Yankees to shake up the ninth-inning situation. Boone didn't officially demote Holmes or name replacement options, but Weaver is an obvious candidate since he leads the team with 22 holds. He's been effective with a 3.33 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 79:23 K:BB across 73 innings. Mark Leiter and Tommy Kahnle could also be in the mix.

Yankees' Luke Weaver: Back on track with 21st hold
Weaver picked up a hold against the Rockies on Friday, walking one batter and striking out one in a scoreless inning of work.
After Carlos Rodon started and gave New York six scoreless frames, Weaver followed in the seventh and worked around a two-out walk to keep the shutout going. The hold was the righty reliever's team-leading 21st of the campaign after he entered the season without any holds over eight years that were mostly spent as a starter. Weaver has recorded five consecutive scoreless outings following a five-run implosion in a loss against Texas on Aug. 10.

Yankees' Luke Weaver: Registers 13th hold
Weaver picked up a hold with a perfect inning of work against the Orioles on Friday.
Weaver needed just six pitches to retire the side in the eighth. After spending the majority of his career as a starter, the veteran righty has thrived as a high-leverage reliever for New York this season. Weaver leads the Yankees with 13 holds while recording a 2.52 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 57:13 K:BB over 35 appearances covering 53.2 innings.
