Will Warren is a right-handed pitcher for the New York Yankees who is earning $826,625 in 2026 under a pre-arbitration contract. Born in Brandon, Mississippi, Warren attended Jackson Preparatory School before playing four collegiate seasons at Southeastern Louisiana University, where he went 7-2 with a 2.57 ERA as a senior in 2021. The Yankees selected him in the eighth round of the 2021 MLB Draft, 243rd overall. He made his major league debut on July 30, 2024 against Philadelphia. In 2025, his first full MLB season, Warren made 33 starts and threw 162.1 innings with 171 strikeouts and a 4.44 ERA, leading all major league rookies in starts, innings, and strikeouts. He wears number 29 in honor of a cousin who passed away. In 2026, Warren has remained part of the Yankees' rotation, posting improved results through his first eight starts while Gerrit Cole and Carlos Rodón recover from elbow injuries. On a roster built around some of the highest-paid arms in baseball, Warren represents a cost-controlled starter whose value is measured in innings as much as in outcomes. "Just want to do my part," Warren has said. "It's going to be a long road ahead, but don't quit, keep going."
