Clippard recorded just one out Sunday, allowing a run on three hits in the loss to the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
The Yankees took a 3-2 lead into the home half of the ninth inning, but after walking the lead off batter, regular closer Dellin Betances was removed in favor of Clippard. The 31-year-old got off to a fantastic start in New York after a midseason trade, but after Sunday's blown save, he's now allowed a run in four of his last five appearances and has been responsible for the loss three times in that span. It's possible he's just running out of gas as the season winds down though, and Clippard should be back in a late inning role again in 2017.
