Green allowed one earned run on one hit while striking out two in the ninth inning, earning the save in the win over the Twins on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Green entered in the ninth inning with a three run lead. He surrendered a solo home run to Miguel Sano, but managed to retire the other three batters to earn his sixth save of the season. Green continues to receive save opportunities with Aroldis Chapman (elbow) on the 10-day injured list. He's picked up three saves in his last three appearances since blowing two leads earlier in August. The 30-year-old carries a 3.13 ERA and 0.85 WHIP with a 10.4 K/9 in 63.1 innings.

Green struck out one in a perfect seventh inning during the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Yankees, recording his fifth save of the season.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander got the call to protect a 2-0 lead and breezed through the top of Boston's batting order on 14 pitches (nine strikes). Green has picked up saves in consecutive appearances as he works in a closer committee with Jonathan Loaisiga and others while Aroldis Chapman (elbow) is on the shelf, but he'll return to his setup role once Chapman is back, perhaps before the end of the week.

Green allowed a hit and no walks while striking out two in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save in Monday's win over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Green had earned wins in each of his last two outings, and he received the save opportunity Monday with Aroldis Chapman (elbow) on the 10-day injured list. The right-hander has posted a 3.68 ERA and 1.09 WHIP in 14.2 innings across 12 appearances since the All-Star break, but he's converted just one of his four save chances during that time. He should remain the favorite for ninth-inning work while Chapman is sidelined.

Green (7-5) blew the save but earned the win Saturday against the White Sox, allowing one run on two hits with a pair of strikeouts in 1.1 innings.
EDGE Analysis
Green came into the game with two out in the eighth inning and the Yankees leading 4-3. He stranded an Andrew Vaughn single to end the frame but yielded a game-tying homer to Jose Abreu in the ninth. It was the fourth blown save in seven chances this season for Green, who picked up the win after the Yankees responded with a trio of runs in the bottom of the ninth. The 30-year-old Green owns a 3.13 ERA and a 68:12 K:BB in 60.1 innings this season.

Green (6-5) allowed one hit and struck out three in two scoreless innings, earning the win Wednesday versus Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander was awarded the win in a bullpen game that the Yankees led nearly wire-to-wire. Green has been excellent in a versatile role this year with a 3.05 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 66:12 K:BB through 59 innings. While he covered the sixth and seventh innings Wednesday, Green could also compete with Jonathan Loaisiga and Zack Britton for save chances while Aroldis Chapman (elbow) is on the injured list. Green has logged three saves and 15 holds in 47 appearances.

Green (5-5) earned the win in relief Thursday against the Mariners after allowing one run on two hits while fanning two across two innings.
EDGE Analysis
Green might have allowed a solo shot to Jarred Kelenic in the seventh inning, but other than that, he was composed on the mound en route to his fifth win of the campaign. Green might have recorded two of his five wins since the All-Star break, but he also has given up runs in three of his last five games and has been struggling for a few weeks now. The right-hander owns a 5.40 ERA across 12 appearances (15 innings) since the beginning of July.

Green (4-5) picked up the win in Wednesday's 3-1 extra-inning victory over the Rays after working a perfect ninth inning. He didn't walk or strikeout a batter.
EDGE Analysis
After giving up four runs in his final appearance before the All-Star break, Green's struggles have continued into the second half as he'd been tagged for two runs in each of his prior two games before Wednesday's clean effort. The rough patch has inflated his ERA from 2.14 to 3.29, but he still has a strong 58:12 K:BB through 52 frames with three saves and 14 holds in addition to his wins.

Green (3-5) allowed four runs on four hits and took a loss against the Astros on Sunday. He recorded just one out.
EDGE Analysis
Things unraveled quickly for the Yankees after entering the ninth inning with a 7-2 lead. Green allowed two inherited to runners to score and eventually served up a walkoff, three-run blast to Jose Altuve. His season ERA spiked to 2.89 through 46.2 innings. He had turned in 6.1 straight scoreless innings prior to Sunday's outing. Between Green and Aroldis Chapman's recent struggles, the Yankees enter the All-Star break with some big question marks in the bullpen.

Green earned the save against Seattle on Wednesday, pitching a perfect ninth inning during which he struck out two batters.
EDGE Analysis
Usual closer Aroldis Chapman has been a disaster of late, giving up nine earned runs and issuing eight walks along with six hits over his past 2.1 innings. As such, the Yankees turned to Green to close the door Wednesday while clinging to a one-run lead. The veteran righty came through, striking out two of the three batters he faced in a 1-2-3 frame. It's difficult to imagine New York going away from Chapman permanently, though the Yankees could give him some time to get his arsenal back in order. Green figures to be a logical temporary closer in that scenario, as he has impressed this season with a 2.23 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 48:8 K:BB across 44.1 innings.

Green (3-4) won Sunday's 4-2 victory in the second game of a doubleheader against the Mets, pitching three perfect innings with six strikeouts.
EDGE Analysis
Green entered in the fifth to protect a 3-2 lead and ended up staying in for the game's final three innings, retiring all nine batters he faced on just 35 pitches. The outing lowered his ERA to 2.28 and the three innings and six strikeouts represent season highs.
