After going with a six-man starting rotation for nearly two weeks, the Yankees will go with the traditional five-man route before Monday's game against the Royals.
"I think we're really pretty committed to that," New York manager Joe Girardi said, adding that he doesn't plan to take another rotation turn with six starters.
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman echoed Girardi's sentiment.
"We'll make a decision when we have to," Cashman said. "We're going to go from six to five, that's the intention, so how we get there, we'll let you know when we make that final call.
"It's either somebody going to the pen or somebody going to Triple-A. We'll make that call soon enough."
It is widely believed that the Yankees will decide to take either A.J. Burnett or Phil Hughes out of the rotation.
