The New York Yankees plan to remove Devin Williams from his role as the team's closer and instead turn to Luke Weaver, manager Aaron Boone said on Sunday, per ESPN's Jorge Castillo. Boone said Williams will not be the team's closer "for right now," leaving the door open for his return to the role eventually.

Devin Williams, who has stumbled to start the season, has been ousted as closer by Yankees manager Aaron Boone, with Luke Weaver set to get save opportunities.

The New York Yankees have officially demoted Devin Williams and will likely turn to Luke Weaver as their closer, again. Weaver takes over as Williams struggles have hit rock bottom and Weaver’s start to the season has been exceptional.
