New York Yankees are happy with Luis Severino’s progress

The New York Yankees need reliable starters, and that is no secret. Pitching is the name of the game, and having an ace or two can really make things easier for a manager. In the case of Aaron Boone, he has a real good one in Gerrit Cole, but the team’s pitching depth was put to test last season, and it wasn’t always a smooth ride.

The New York Yankees were forced to use J.A. Happ in an important postseason start (well, as you probably recall, it was actually a bulk relief appearance) and rely on rookie Deivi Garcia, who wasn’t bad at all, but it’s not the most desirable scenario.
