The Yankees continue to restructure their bullpen by trading reliever Adam Warren to the Mariners, the team announced.

New York will receive $1.25 million in additional international bonus pool money, according to MLB.com's Mark Feinsand.

The Yankees last week acquired reliever Zach Britton from the Orioles but dealt Chasen Shreve and Giovanny Gallegos to the Cardinals.

Warren, 30, had a 2.70 ERA in 24 relief appearances this season with 37 strikeouts in 30 innings.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Yankees' bullpen also features Aroldis Chapman, Dellin Betances, David Robertson, Jonathan Holder, Britton, A.J. Cole, and Chad Green. New York's bullpen has the best ERA (2.88) among all teams this season.

With their additional international bonus pool money they acquired from three trades over the past week, the Yankees signed the No. 9 international prospect in the Class of 2018, and reportedly may not be done.
