Yankees pick up Luis Severino’s club option for 2023

Good news has been sparse for Yankees fans recently, but we got some earlier today. Sevy Bump Days can all-but-officially be scheduled into our 2023 calendars, as New York announced earlier today they plan on exercising their $15 million club option on the hard-throwing righty. That club option is the final season from the extension he signed with the club in February 2019.

Brian Cashman said that the #Yankees will pick up Luis Severino’s option for 2023.

This was basically a no-brainer, given how Severino pitched in 2022, his first full season in ages after recovering from a myriad of injuries (including Tommy John surgery).
