Luis Severino isn’t the pitcher he once was, as the dropoff from last season has been staggering. With his pitch quality and shapes worsening coming as he enters free agency in the winter, the Yankees likely aren’t retaining the former All-Star. It’s a sad decline to see, especially after seeing the heights he once reached in 2017 and 2018, just to flash signs of that greatness during the 2022 season.
With that being said, the Yankees can’t reminisce on the past for much longer, and they’ll need to figure out who can fill in as the fifth starter for the remainder of the season.
