As of now, the Yankees are still riding with Luis Severino to make the start Friday night. The 29-year-old recently called himself the "worst pitcher in the game" after his second shortest start of the season last Sunday evening. There's been reports that the team could skip Severino's spot and move him to the bullpen for the foreseeable future.
For the Astros, they'll have Hunter Brown on the bump who is 7-7 with a 4.12 ERA in 2023. He earned his first victory in over a month his last time out in Houston's 17-4 victory over the Rays on July 29.
