Spring Training is upon us, but New York Yankees’ ace Luis Severino has yet to sign a new deal and now we might know why thanks Fancred’s Jon Heyman.
Heyman reported the Yankees and Severino are in the process of negotiating a contract extension, but nothing seems to be close at the moment.
Yankees and Luis Severino have had extension talks, as well, but no word they are close yet. Sevy’s scheduled arb hearing has yet to be heard.

This line of thinking is a little different for the Yankees and general manager Brian Cashman who rarely discuss extensions before the season.
