The Yankees announced this week that pitcher Luis Severino doesn’t have any structural damage on his right shoulder, which is obviously a best-case scenario after he was shut down after being scratched from his rehab start for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre while “not feeling right.” The talented 27-year-old hurler, who is trying to work his way back from Tommy John surgery and a groin strain in addition to his shoulder issue, sought a second opinion on his MRI, but was ultimately cleared of any serious issues.
“Let’s get through this week and see when [Severino is] able to start throwing again,” manager Aaron Boone told the press this week.
