Luis Gil's final start of the spring was not enough to secure a spot in the Yankees' four-man rotation for the season, with Max Fried starting against the Giants on Wednesday and Cam Schlittler, Will Warren and Ryan Weathers. The team is using a four-team rotation to ensure their starters are not too long between starts over the first two weeks of the season. The question is whether Gil will open the year in the bullpen or the minors until the Yankees need a fifth starter in early April. The remaining arms still vying for spots are Rule 5 pick Cade Winquest, Brent Headrick, Jake Bird and Osvaldo Bido, who have minor league options while Bido does not. The Yankees may use Gil out of the bullpen in a piggyback role to keep him built up, but already have length options in Ryan Yarbrough and Paul Blackburn.
