Don’t miss Greg Joyce’s text messages from The Bronx and beyond — he’s giving Sports+ subscribers the inside buzz on the Yankees.

About an hour after the trade deadline passed last year, Will Warren was on the mound at Citizens Bank Park making his MLB debut.

When he got the phone call that he was getting called up, he initially thought he might have been getting traded, because that was more or less the expectation around this time of year during Warren’s journey through the farm system.

“I’m pretty sure every year I thought I was going to get traded in the minor leagues,” Warren said with a grin Tuesday, sitting at his locker inside the Yankees clubhouse. “I just think that’s how it is with the Yankees. This is an organization where you’re known for winning and going and making the playoffs and hopefully competing for a World Series every year.

“So I think coming up through the system, you know when the trade deadline is and it’s like, ‘All right, is this going to happen? What are the moves that are going to be made?’ Because you know at some point there’s going to be some guys flip-flopped.”
