The Yankees placed Weaver on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a left hamstring strain.

EDGE Analysis

Weaver suffered the injury while warming up during Sunday's game against the Dodgers and is expected to be sidelined 4-to-6 weeks. Devin Williams will slide back into the closer role for the Yankees while Weaver is shelved.

Weaver (hamstring) is expected to be placed on the 15-day injured list and could miss the next 4-to-6 weeks, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Weaver suffered the injury while warming up for Sunday's matchup against the Dodgers, and the injury appears to be more significant than initially thought after reviewing his MRI results. The team plans to disclose an official timetable for the closer's return Tuesday, per Passan. Weaver's absence will presumably mean more save opportunities for Devin Williams, who picked up his last save May 27 despite surrendering two runs on three hits against the Angels.

Weaver suffered hamstring discomfort while warming up to potentially enter Sunday's 7-3 win over the Dodgers, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Weaver was gearing up for a save chance with the Yankees entering the top of the ninth inning up 6-3, but he ultimately never entered the contest after New York expanded its lead to 7-3 before the bottom of the frame. The Yankees went with Tim Hill in the bottom of the ninth, which wasn't overly surprising because it was no longer a save opportunity. It is now understood that Weaver "felt something" in his hamstring while stretching in the bullpen according to manager Aaron Boone, which he said is the reason why Hill entered the game instead of Weaver. It's unclear what exactly the right-hander is dealing with, but more information on his status will likely come in the near future. If he is forced to miss any action moving forward, former closer Devin Williams would likely be the top candidate to assume the ninth-inning role.

Weaver picked up the save in Sunday's 5-4 win over Colorado, allowing one run on three hits with no strikeouts over one inning.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees had a two-run lead entering the bottom of the ninth, but Weaver nearly didn't make it out of the frame with the save. He allowed a solo homer to Mickey Moniak to begin the inning and had runners on first and second with one out before retiring Ezequiel Tovar and Hunter Goodman to end the game. Weaver hadn't allowed an earned run in his previous eight appearances, and he's now converted seven of his eight save chances.

Weaver struck out one batter and didn't allow a baserunner in the ninth inning to pick up the save Thursday during a 1-0 victory over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Weaver has been lights out through his first 21 appearances this season, surrendering just one run across 22.2 innings. That continued Thursday as the 31-year-old needed only 10 pitches to notch his seventh save of the season in eight tries. Weaver worked in all three games of the series versus Texas, which could make him unavailable for the first game of the Rockies series Friday.

Weaver earned the save in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers after recording the final out of the ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

The Yankees entered the ninth inning up 5-0, but Weaver was brought in to close things out after Ian Hamilton gave up a two-run home run to Jonah Heim. Weaver was able to make quick work of Josh Smith, needing just two pitches to record the final out and earn the save. It's the second outing in a row in which Weaver has tallied a one-out save, and he is up to six saves on the season with a 0.44 ERA, 0.58 WHIP and 22:6 K:BB across 20.2 innings.

Weaver came away with the save in Friday's 6-2 win over the Mets, retiring the only batter he faced in the ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

Weaver was brought in during the ninth inning after Yerry De Los Santos yielded an RBI double to Francisco Lindor. With runners on second and third, Weaver needed only two pitches to finish things off by getting Juan Soto to fly out to center field. It was Weaver's fifth save of the campaign, and he has a 0.44 ERA, 0.59 WHIP and 22:6 K:BB across 20.1 innings this season.

Weaver struck out three in a perfect inning to earn the save in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Weaver has bounced back from his blown save May 5 versus the Padres with 4.2 scoreless innings over his last three appearances. This was his first save in that span, as the Yankees hadn't produced a save situation in over a week. The right-hander continues to post elite numbers with a 0.45 ERA, 0.60 WHIP and 22:6 K:BB across 20 innings while adding four saves and six holds this season. Weaver is capable of working multiple innings, so he may not get every save chance, but he's answered the call nearly every time he's taken the mound this season.

Weaver (0-1) took the loss and blew a save opportunity against San Diego on Monday, allowing one run on two hits and a walk over one-third of an inning.

EDGE Analysis

New York led 4-0 heading into the eighth inning, and manager Aaron Boone called upon demoted former closer Devin Williams to maintain the lead. Williams struggled, getting two strikeouts but allowing the Padres to load the bases. Weaver was then summoned to try to escape the jam but couldn't do so -- the first two batters he faced each got a hit, pushing four runs across the plate, though three of those were charged to Williams. Weaver then walked a batter before finally getting the out he needed to end the frame, but his poor outing allowed San Diego to take the lead and resulted in his first blown save of the campaign. The run charged to Weaver was also the first he has allowed this season, and given his overall excellence and Williams' continued struggles, it's likely Weaver will continue to work as the Yankees' closer, at least in the short term.

Weaver earned the save against the Rays on Friday, striking out two batters in a perfect ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

Weaver came in for the ninth inning to preserve the Yankees' three-run lead, and he did so with ease. He needed only 11 pitches (nine strikes) to close things out and finished the frame with back-to-back punchouts. Weaver has yet to yield a run over his 13 outings this season and has a 16:5 K:BB across 14 innings. He's taken over as the Bronx Bomber's go-to closer due to Devin Williams' poor start the season.
