Some say his pitching is “disgusting,” others simply watch in awe as his backdoor slider whistles past the standing batter. Everyone in that sequence of events is enjoying New York Yankees new acquisition Adam Ottavino’s pitching, even the batter who just struck out swinging.

Fellow pitcher, Dellin Betances, commented on Ottavino and the quality he brings to the Yankees:
“He’s been unbelievable. His stuff is disgusting,” Betances said after the Yankees’ 6-5 Grapefruit League victory over the Pirates on Sunday.
