Yankees 2023 Season Preview: Luis Severino

A long, long time ago, Luis Severino was that rarest of diamonds: the homegrown starting pitching prospect who, after a bit of an adjustment at the big league level, turned into a bona fide ace. Between 2017 and 2018, the All-Star right-hander won 33 games while tossing over 380 innings. From 2019 through 2021, Severino managed to toss a total of 18 innings for the Yankees. Hopes were high for him entering last season, although I doubt anyone was really confident they knew what the Yankees would get from Severino.
