Though Justus Sheffield is the name Yankees fans have been patiently waiting to catch a glimpse of in the Bronx, it’s Domingo German, and his 13 big league starts this season that could have an immediate impact on the Yanks’ Postseason run.
Last time we saw the 26-year-old was on July 20 versus the Mets. On that day, the right-hander lasted only 3.2 innings while allowing four earned runs on five hits, striking out three and walking two after just 71 pitches.
The eventual loss extended a winless stretch that spanned over a month and ballooned German’s ERA to 5.
