Warren threw 46 pitches and gave up a home run across 2.2 innings in Friday’s loss to the Blue Jays. He is 0-1 with a 3.24 ERA in 8.1 innings of work this season. The 30-year-old saw time on the DL last season with back issues as well.
In three appearances with the Big League club, Holder has allowed seven runs (six earned) in just 2.2 innings.
Warren joins fellow relievers Tommy Kahnle, Luis Cessa, Giovanny Gallegos and Ben Heller on the ever growing disabled list.
