The New York Yankees are in need of pitching help going into the 2021 season. They will possibly re-sign Masahiro Tanaka and pick up an additional mid-rotation pitcher, possibly a Corey Kluber. But coming into the season, they will most look forward to the return of Domingo German who’s return is now confirmed, and Luis Severino. Before we get into that, let’s take a look at Severino’s journey to becoming a star New York Yankee pitcher.
Luis Severino was born on February 20, 1994, in Sabana de la Mar, Dominican Republic. As a boy, he played baseball in the sand fields of the Republic, he played most infield positions, but as he aged, he preferred pitching.
