Dellin Betances spent a chunk of the past season as part of one of the most feared bullpens in baseball, but is spending the World Series watching his former teammates, Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman.
“I’ve got to keep close tabs on Miller and Chapman and see who wins the throne,” Betances said of the matchup between the Indians and the Cubs. “No sides. I’ll root for both of them.”
The Yankees would have liked the trio of fireballers to pitch for them in October, but Chapman and Miller were dealt at the trade deadline. Betances was shaky as the closer at the end of the season.
