10/12/24 | Clay Holmes rediscovers form a month after being pulled from closer's role as Yankees prep for ALCS. Clay Holmes is rediscovering his sinker at a pivotal time for the New York Yankees. A little over a month since being removed from his closer’s role, Holmes has allowed two runs over his past 14 outings and the right-hander’s five spotless innings helped the Yankees advance past the Kansas City Royals to reach the American League Championship Series. Holmes was 3-5 with 3.14 ERA and 30 saves in 67 appearances. He led the majors with 13 blown saves and was taken out of the closer’s spot after allowing a game-ending grand slam to Texas rookie Wyatt Langford on Sept. 3.

10/11/24 | New York Yankees' Biggest Surprise so far in Postseason. One of the New York Yankees' biggest question marks heading into the postseason was centered around what they would get out of demoted closer Clay Holmes. Holmes lost the closer's role to Luke Weaver after surrendering a walk-off grand slam to Wyatt Langford of the Texas Rangers on Sept. 3. This appeared to be rock bottom for Holmes, who suffered his MLB-leading 13th blown save. The Yankees took the ALDS series from the Kansas City Royals, three games to one, and Holmes was a key factor, tossing five shutout innings in four appearances.

10/11/24 | Yankees' Luke Weaver, Clay Holmes dominate again to close out Royals. KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It was Clay Holmes and Luke Weaver at the end Thursday night, finishing up the Yankees' ALDS clinching 3-1 win over the Royals in Game 4 and completing a nearly perfect performance in the series from a bullpen that, at this point, is likely as strong as any remaining in the postseason. “We've always been confident with ourselves there,'' Holmes said of the pen. “We got a little rest [at the end of the regular season] and it did us good. Now, we're all together and we've got to keep it up.” Over the course of the series, Yankee relievers combined to pitch 15 ²/3 innings without allowing an earned run and Weaver has seemingly cemented his role as closer.

10/06/24 | New closer Luke Weaver locks down Yankees' win — with big assist from Clay Holmes. At the trade deadline, it seemed apparent the Yankees needed a closer, with Clay Holmes struggling in the role for over a month. Instead, general manager Brian Cashman went out and acquired Mark Leiter Jr. and Enyel De Los Santos, with Cashman saying he wanted to give Aaron Boone “as many choices to navigate late-game action [as possible]. I'm not viewing Clay as a problem.” Who knew the closer the Yankees needed was already in their clubhouse?
