For years, fans of the New York Yankees have been waiting to see how Luis Severino’s impact can be felt at the big-league level. Signed by the Yankees in 2012 as an international free agent, Severino’s progress in the minor leagues has been something to watch.
He may have arrived a year too early in the majors, but Severino looked like the player we all thought he’d be when he was called up towards the end of the 2015 MLB season.
Starting in 11 big-league games, Severino pitched just over 62 innings with a 2.89 ERA and a record of 5-3.
