Yankees: Luis Severino could pitch out of the bullpen when he returns

It doesn’t sound like the Yankees ace is returning anytime soon, but Brian Cashman still seems optimistic that we will see him pitch this season. Sevy has been out with a lat injury for the entire season and has suffered multiple setbacks throughout the rehab process.

Before the most recent setback he suffered at the end of June the expectation was that he would be able to return shortly after the All-Star break. Clearly, that’s not going to happen now, but the good news is he’ll start throwing again in the coming days.

Cashman discussed a range of topics including Sevy’s timeline and what his role could be when he rejoins the club in an interview with MLB Network Radio on Sirius XM on Friday.
