Devin Williams excited for Yankees fans and teammates
Devin Williams, a new closer for the New York Yankees, is excited about joining the team this season. He was traded from the Milwaukee Brewers and is looking forward to pitching in front of Yankees fans for the first time. Williams spoke about the talented bullpen, mentioning that there are many skilled pitchers competing for spots. He praised his new teammates, saying it is a good problem to have so much talent. Williams is known for his exceptional changeup, called the 'Airbender,' which has a strong record against opponents. As he prepares for the season, Williams is mindful of his superstitions. He follows a specific routine when putting on his uniform, starting with his sliders and ending with his left shoe. He even avoids washing his arm sleeves if he pitches a scoreless inning, which can lead to them getting quite “stinky.” Looking ahead, Williams is eager to face his former team, the Brewers. He wants to perform well against them, but ultimately, he aims to win every game this season. Williams believes that passion from Yankees fans helps motivate players and makes the game more enjoyable.
